If the `tarsnapper.tarsnap.run_on` variable is set to anything other than
`trusted` or `all`, the timer will never be activated.
## git-annex
[git-annex][19] is installed for file syncing. A systemd service unit for the
git-annex assistant is enabled and started by default. To prevent this, remove
the `git-annex` variable from the config.
NetworkManager dispatchers are installed to stop the service when connecting to
untrusted networks. This helps to avoid having network tasks that may leak
personally identifiable information running in the background when connected to
untrusted networks.
Note that this behaviour is slightly different than that of the NetworkManager
dispatchers included for syncing mail and performing Tarsnap backups. Those
timers are disabled by default, only started *after* a connection to a trusted
network has been established, and immediately stopped after disconnecting from
any network. Conversely, the git-annex assistant is started by default,
stopped *before* connecting to an untrusted network, and immediately started
after disconnecting from any network.
If the `git-annex.stopped_on` variable is set to anything other than
`untrusted`, the NetworkManager dispatchers will not be installed, resulting in
the git-annex assistant service not being stopped on untrusted networks.
