### Please describe the problem. 07:32 warp@18-volt:/mnt/zooyork/annex/somerepo (master)$ git annex info --fast repository mode: indirect trusted repositories: 0 semitrusted repositories: 4 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001 -- web 3dca408f-ccfd-48df-a8a0-b7d517a482ef -- zooyork [here] 9fbb4e2c-4ed9-47b4-877c-74d2eeea6296 -- [kirby] d1b57403-2bc2-41d8-9a8e-eec0d3f31e67 -- [pucca] untrusted repositories: 0 transfers in progress: downloading folder/some-large-file.mp4 from pucca available local disk space: 232.2 gigabytes (+1 megabyte reserved) The "transfers in progress" section of the above "git annex info" output describes a file being downloaded from pucca, presumably to [here], which is zooyork. This does not describe the transfer correctly, when I ran the "git annex info --fast" command another git annex process was downloading folder/some-large-file.mp4 from zooyork to pucca (so, in the other direction than git annex info described). ### What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Make two regular git annex repositories, add some big files so a transfer takes long enough that you can run some git annex commands while the transfer is ongoing 2. cd /repo/a ; git annex get a-big-file.mp4 --from=b 3. (in a different window), cd /repo/b ; git annex info --fast ### What version of git-annex are you using?
