### Please describe the problem. git-annex ignores changing of remote location in .git/config ### What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Change Hostname of previously working remote so that the existing remote will no longer work and produce "ssh: connect to host port 22: Network is unreachable" errors. 2. Stop all running git-annex processes. 3. Edit DNS name in corresponding remote .git/config. 4. Restart git-annex. 5. Turns out: git-annex still uses the old remote's DNS name. ### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system? newest one available. 5.20151116-gbe86081 ### Please provide any additional information below. See following entry in log, occurring plenty often: [[!format sh """ ssh: connect to host some.unreachable.dns.net port 22: Network is unreachable rsync: connection unexpec rsync failed -- run git annex again to resume file transfer tedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [Receiver] rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(226) [Receiver=3.1.1] """]] ### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders) Trust me I love git-annex. Had dreams of something like git-annex for almost 10 years. I instantly got stuck on git-annex when I have read the first few sentences about it. Since then, things in my life have changed in a quite serious manner. THANKS for your help!
