I setup a local git annex repo and tried to pair it with an empty repo on my notebook. All done via the webapp.
But pairing failed somehow, because I get this error while transfer seems to go on forever.
ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer
ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
The webapp shows the remote repo as "unfinished repository".
I can access the other computer via ssh and an other git-annex repo pairing between the two computers work fine.
UPDATE: In the meantime I setup another paired repo on these two computers. Everything works fine.
I added the repos from scratch again and the same errors occurs again. The repositories which do not pair are the Documents folder on my desktop and on my macbook. Is there something special with macs documents folder?

I tried using git-annex on encfs to see if I could reproduce this problem, and I could not get exactly this error, but I certianly did see it cause problems with the ssh connection caching socket.
It would be a good idea to
git config annex.sshcaching falsein repositories stored on encfs.Actually, given other reports of problems caused by encfs, it would be a good idea to not use git-annex on encfs. There are better ways to encrypt your files.
Hi,
Could you please indicate what other means of file encryption systems you have in mind?
The others I know are at a partition level (cryptsetup, LUKS) and are less pratical to setup than a simple encfs.
