+### Please describe the problem.
+
+I have a very simple use case for Git Annex on Android : I want my photos to be transferred to my home server automatically, in a special "incoming photos" folder, where they eventually get classified into other folders or deleted. git-annex in installed on this server.
+
+However, adding a Remote server (ssh) repository on a Photos repository on Android results in a totally confusing situation where the files on the Android device are removed and transferred to a bare repository on the server. Getting out of this sticky situation requires some commandline-fu.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+1. Install git-annex on Android
+2. Open git-annex from the apps menu
+3. Accept offer to create a Photos repository
+4. Add a "Remote server" server repository
+5. Wait a bit.
+6. "Uh oh."
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+Using git-annex Android and Debian.
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
+
+I thought that adding a remote server repository would result in two non-bare repositories, such as what the Local pairing mode achieves. However Local pairing is not available on Android. I assumed the remote server would function in the same manner, except that I entered the SSH connection information manually.
