It’s not a big deal at all and an easy mistake to make.  No worries!

Great, but you might want to look at <https://bugs.gnu.org/45000>.
Someone else is working on getting the “webapp” component of git-annex
to work, and it uses a few of the same dependencies as hledger-web.
It’s not hard on my end to merge the patch sets, but you could possibly
coordinate to avoid duplicate work.  I’ve CC’ed Jonathan (the other
submitter) on this message.

Thanks for the patches!  :)
