I installed git-annex on my freenas running freebsd according to the instructions on this site. every now and then it'll pop up (when using the webapp) telling me git-annex has been updated, do I want to restart. if I say yes, the webapp dies, I have to manually stop git annex assistant --stop and after a few minutes of using the webapp it again tells me it has been updated...
only saw this in the logs: UpgradeWatcher: A new version of git-annex has been installed.
Also, I connected 2 repos (on my NAS with freebsd and on my Macbook) but the NAS one can't connect to the MAcbook via SSH ssh: connect to host 192.168.178.33 port 22: Connection refused
How is this supposed to work? Obviously for now it shows its only syncing metadata with my MACbook: syncing enabled (metadata only)
Also, both repositories are bare, direct but when a file got pulled from the NAS to the MACbook it was a symlink and not the file itself, so what's wrong here?
Also found this in the logs:
And I didn't do anything except create 2 repos, connect them, no files inside, still testing...
I don't know of any freebsd build of git-annex that would use its self-upgrade facility. I don't provide one, and I don't see why the freebsd porters would enable that feature.
I wonder if you're somehow using the linux standalone build on freebsd via some linux syscall compatability layer. Which is interesting if it works, but not suprising if it fails..
In particular, it seems likely that the linux version of lsof wouldn't be very happy when run in a freebsd system, and perhaps that's why it's running out of memory.
