### Please describe the problem.
Git-annex will constantly sync most(if not all) my files to box.com

### What steps will reproduce the problem?
1 - Use git-annex instead of Dropbox at work
2 - Boot computer.
3 - Watch it sync everything to box.com (even files i believe it has transferred each and every day for the last few months)

### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
git-annex version: 4.20130827

But i have never seen it work satisfactory in any version.

Also, i have seen this is 10+ different clean git-annexes. So it isn't annex specific. 

### Please provide any additional information below.

I am going to add more debug to this bug constantly. (I intend to do a full 'git annex copy --to box.com --not --in box.com' daily, and see if the same files are transfered again and again)


For now, i see a few different issues already:
