+Not sure this is quite the same situation, but on linux, I am seeing
+`git-annex unlock` of a locked file display the warning.
+
+Also, .git/annex/restage.log is left empty after the command completes.
+Which seems to indicate it managed to restage the file after all. Is that
+file empty for you on windows after it displays the warning and before
+running other commands?
