### Please describe the problem. When I `git mv` a file that I just `git annex add`-ed without having `git commit`-ed it first, then the symlink will break. ### What steps will reproduce the problem? $ mkdir foo $ echo hello > foo/bar $ git annex add foo/bar $ git mv foo/bar . ### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system? 5.20140529 on Debian testing > This is fundamentally something git-annex cannot deal with, > because there is no way to hook into git to fix the symlink when > `git mv` moves the file. > > Instead, git-annex has several "good enough" fixes for the problem: > > * As soon as you `git commit`, the pre-commit hook will run `git annex > fix` and this will fix the symlink before it gets committed. > * You can run `git annex fix` yourself after `git mv`. > * Even `git annex add $file` will fix the symlink if the file is already > annexed. > > So, [[done]] --[[Joey]]
