+### Please describe the problem.
+
+``git annex unlock myfolder`` will unlock all files inside (`find myfolder -type l' returns nothing).
+
+Yet, ``git annex whereis myfolder`` shows those files are *not* in current repo.
+
+Meanwhile, those files also reside in a remote. git-annex-whereis does show there is a copy in that remote.
+
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+Same as described above.
+
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+Lubuntu 15.10
+git annex 5.20151019
+
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.

+
+### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
+
+Yes, git annex is wonderful.
