+Say I have some files on remote A. But I'm away from it, and transferring
+files from B to C. I'd like to avoid transferring any files I already have
+on A. 
+
+Something like:
+
+	git annex copy --to C --exclude-on A
+
+This would not contact A, just use its cached location log info.
+
+I suppose I might also sometime want to only act on files that are
+thought/known to be on A.
+
+	git annex drop --only-on A
+
