git-annex-4.20131024: doc/forum/Removing_files_not_found_by_git_annex_unused.mdwn

Hi,

I've removed some large files with git remove, but seem to be unable to remove the corresponding annex content.

Example:

kheymann@corax:~/annex$ find -name "*s24576--10daa3d9007edad720dc057e4272a9c6cda930bef34a83e3bc1d93f1c55b9cac" 

./.git/annex/objects/jF/j7/SHA256-s24576--10daa3d9007edad720dc057e4272a9c6cda930bef34a83e3bc1d93f1c55b9cac

./.git/annex/objects/jF/j7/SHA256-s24576--10daa3d9007edad720dc057e4272a9c6cda930bef34a83e3bc1d93f1c55b9cac/SHA256-s24576--10daa3d9007edad720dc057e4272a9c6cda930bef34a83e3bc1d93f1c55b9cac

kheymann@corax:~/annex$ git annex dropkey -vvv --backend SHA256 s24576--10daa3d9007edad720dc057e4272a9c6cda930bef34a83e3bc1d93f1c55b9cac

No output but the files remain in the annex. Git annex fsck and git annex unused run without listing files to be removes. What can I do apart from deleting the files manually from the annex?

Some info:

    kheymann@corax:~/annex$ git annex version
    git-annex version: 3.20121017
    local repository version: 3
    default repository version: 3
    supported repository versions: 3
    upgrade supported from repository versions: 0 1 2

Any hints?

Best, 
Karsten
