git-annex-5.20140210: doc/bugs/Repository_in_manual_mode_does_not_hold_files.mdwn
### Please describe the problem.
I have two repositories in my local network which are locally paired and synced using git-annex assistant (setup using webapp, both in direct mode). The one (master) has all files and is in mode "full backup". The second one (slave) is in "manual" mode and should therefore only contain the file content it already has. But it also should not loose any content it has until I explicitely drop it but this is exactly what happens! Files are getting dropped (I think it happens during git-annex startup of the slave repository, but I am not sure).
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Setup two repositories using git-annex webapp in local network
2. Set one to "full backup" mode, the second to "manual" mode
3. Add files to the master repository
4. Pair both repositories over webapp
5. Call git-annex get folderA on slave system to transfer some file contents to it.
=> After some time the file contents from folderA seem to disappear on slave system.
### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
* Master (full backup) repository is running on Ubuntu Server 12.04 and git-annex 5.20140117.1 from PPA. Git version 1.7.9.5
* Slave (manual) repository is running on Gentoo Linux with 5.20140116, created from own ebuild. Git version 1.8.4.5
### Please provide any additional information below.
