The forum is the best place to discuss git-annex.
For realtime chat, use the #git-annex channel on irc.oftc.net.
You can also watch incoming commits there.
The VCS-home mailing list is a good mailing list for users who want to use git-annex in the context of managing their large personal files.

I welcome translations in theory, but I do not have any infrastructure in place to support it, so that would have to be the first step.

Hi Joey,
I am one of your original funders for git-annex. I think you have done a great job and I am proud to say I helped fund your endeavor.
How do I start the git-annex assistant webapp via command line? I installed the program on my Fedora 19 computer via YUM and it does not come packaged with a desktop icon as you show in your demonstration video. I try running
$ git annex assistantbut I cannot accesshttp://127.0.0.1:34795/as you do in the video. Also, the quickstart page (http://git-annex.branchable.com/assistant/quickstart/) seems to have outdated information as it states you can start the webapp via$ git annex webapp, however when I try to run this I get the following error:git-annex: unknown command webapp.Regards, Blake
Your fedora build apparently does not include the webapp, since
git annex webappis the right command. Install the Linux standalone build instead.(Again this page is not a discussion forum. Next person to post here will waste my time since I will have to go configure the site to block comments here..)
