I'm hoping to use git-annex in a project to manage large image files and maintain archived copies of them on removable USB drives. But I can't get this to work the way it's described in the walkthrough and in the "git-annex/tips/offline archive drives" example. Here's what I did:
marshal@home[~]> git-annex version
git-annex version: 5.20140412ubuntu1
build flags: Assistant Webapp Webapp-secure Pairing Testsuite S3 WebDAV Inotify DBus DesktopNotify XMPP DNS Feeds Quvi TDFA CryptoHash
key/value backends: SHA256E SHA1E SHA512E SHA224E SHA384E SKEIN256E SKEIN512E SHA256 SHA1 SHA512 SHA224 SHA384 SKEIN256 SKEIN512 WORM URL
remote types: git gcrypt S3 bup directory rsync web webdav tahoe glacier hook external
Create the local repo:
marshal@home[~]> mkdir ~/annex
marshal@home[~]> cd ~/annex
marshal@home[~/annex]> git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/marshal/annex/.git/
marshal@home[~/annex]> git annex init "my laptop"
init my laptop ok
(Recording state in git...)
Create the remote repo (assume the warning can be ignored?)
marshal@home[~/annex]> cd /media/marshal/Sony\ USB/
marshal@home[/media/marshal/Sony USB]> git clone ~/annex
Cloning into 'annex'...
done.
warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout.
marshal@home[/media/marshal/Sony USB]> cd annex
marshal@home[/media/marshal/Sony USB/annex]> git annex init "usbdrive"
init usbdrive ok
(Recording state in git...)
Make them remotes of each other
marshal@home[/media/marshal/Sony USB/annex]> git remote add laptop ~/annex
marshal@home[/media/marshal/Sony USB/annex]> cd ~/annex
marshal@home[~/annex]> git remote add usbdrive /media/marshal/Sony\ USB/annex/

marshal@home[~/annex]> cp ~/Desktop/file* .

Why is there nothing in the usbdrive repo? And worse, why is the whereis command saying there are 2 copies?
But if I sync from the usbdrive repo, the files are copied

Why did I have to sync from the usbdrive? I expected the repo setup and the --auto option to copy the files. What am I missing?
Any help much appreciated.
