What is the problem?

A datalad clone --reckless ephemeral using an anonymous https URL makes origin annex-ignore, even though a git annex enableremote origin immediately afterwards works just fine.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

DataLad information

$ datalad --version
datalad 1.1.3

Additional context

Slightly off-topic: what I am really looking for is just the annex.private part of an ephemeral clone, not necessarily the symlinking hacks, but this is rather convoluted compared to providing a single option when cloning:

datalad -c annex.private=true clone ...
cd ...
git config annex.private true

Maybe that should be made easier?

Have you had any success using DataLad before?

Thanks for pointing that out. I got used to doing it this way and stopped thinking of it as convoluted, until recently I wanted to do the same from the Python API... and had to modify os.environ. Anyway - I resurrected #7247 which I think proposes just what you describe (--reckless private for clone) got stuck due to lack of agreement about the API, hopefully it will get accepted this time.
