It's remarkable that a bad decision made in 1982 can cause me to waste an entire day in 2013. Yes, `/` vs `\` fun time. Even though I long ago converted git-annex to use the haskell `` operator wherever it builds up paths (which transparently handles either type of separator), I still spent most of today dealing with it. Including some libraries I use that get it wrong. Adding to the fun is that git uses `/` internally, even on Windows, so Windows separated paths have to be converted when being fed into git. Anyway, `git annex add` now works on Windows. So does `git annex find`, and `git annex whereis`, and probably most query stuff. Today was very un-fun and left me with a splitting headache, so I will certainly *not* be working on the Windows port tomorrow.
