Re: Bug#900173: git-annex: internal error: evacuate: strange closure type 4325404



Any chance you can build git-annex from source, so we can try a few
modifications to try to narrow this down?

sudo apt-get build-dep git-annex
apt-get source git-annex
cd git-annex-6.20180509
make
PATH=`pwd`:$PATH
export PATH

Then see if you can reproduce the problem, and then try applying the
attached patch, and re-making and see if it avoids the problem.
The patch tries to avoid doing anything before forking when starting
the assistant, so it should do only the same pre-fork operations as
git-annex watch. (Other than some differences due to argument parsing I
suppose.)
