What steps will reproduce the problem?

* Start with a clean setup.
* Allow webapp to start; use it to create annex in ~/Documents/annex That works.
* Go to add remote repo. Removable drive.
* Select "/Volumes/G-DRIVE slim". Click next.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected is something like "done". What I see is

Internal Server Error

git config [Param "annex.uuid",Param "6898F314-7817-4CD5-B1C3-588C55522A3B"] failed

What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?

git-annex version 3.20130107, OS X Mountain Lion. No MacPorts/homebrew/fink installed. gcc / git are installed.

Please provide any additional information below.

Maybe something to do with the drive name having spaces? "/Volumes/git-annex" worked fine.
