### Please describe the problem. I got the following errors from the assistant, in `.git/annex/daemon.log`: InternalIOException send: resource vanished (Broken pipe) Then subsequent transfers seem to fail with: InternalIOException send: resource vanished (Connection reset by peer) Workaround: restart the assistant. ### What steps will reproduce the problem? It's unclear. The assistant is trying to sync a lot of stuff to S3 right now, as files are regularly added into the repository and the assistant migrates them all there. The repository is setup as a "source" repository to make sure it doesn't keep files and send them all to s3. ### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system? standalone tarball `5.20150508-g883d57f` on Ubuntu Precise. ### Please provide any additional information below. here are the two latest log files, but all previous logfiles available are similar... http://paste.ubuntu.com/11721025/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/11721028/ -- [[anarcat]]
