Sorry for letting this fall through the cracks!

Restart ipfs node. Otherwise `ipfs add` will not complain and `ipfs filestore`
will raise error.

Then pass the `--nocopy` flag when running `ipfs add`

As written, this is a bit awkward. How about something like:

Then restart your IPFS node to reload your config.

Finally, when adding files with ipfs add, pass the --nocopy flag to use the filestore instead of copying the files into your local IPFS repo.

Hi, I push the above modification to the new pr: #5927.
I have to create a new pr because the permission of ipbit is changed. Sorry for inconvenience.
