+> One approach for this would be to hide the git repo away somewhere, and have the git-annex assistant watch a regular directory, with regular files.
+
+I think this would be the single most important feature added to git-annex.
+1. It could be used to backup regularly a smb share over the network.
+2. For those who dont trust a program who modifies their files directly.
+(I had a 3GB permanent data loss, when trying to push a 10GB directory into git annex.)
+3. Android
+
+I do hope the above method will be implemented for Android too, so its like two birds with one stone.
+(Im really for option 2 here. I dont like the very idea of modifying my files directly.
+Git does not do it either, I have disk space (if not I buy more disks), rather then risquing losing important datas)
+
+Best,
+ Laszlo
