+### 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.

+### Please describe the problem.
+
+When the annex directory has a non-ascii character (like a tilde) on its path, local pairing fails and a couple of instances of the following message appear on the log
+
+"illegal control characters in pairing message; ignoring"
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+* make a new annex repo named on /home/someone/VĂ­deos/blah/ (notice the i with a tilde) on two computers
+* try to pair them
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+git-annex version: 5.20141016-g26b38fd on Arch Linux
+
+git-annex version: 5.20140717 on Ubuntu 14.10

+huh! weird. i just made up those \"steps to reproduce\" from memory, as I cloned the repo a while ago. maybe i just forgot to sync it?
+
+sorry for the noise.

+Opening multiple connections to a host can be preferable sometimes and it's unlikely to be an issue at all for the larger remotes like Google, Microsoft or S3.
+
+For example, the OneDrive provider spends a lot of time sitting around waiting for initialisation between uploads. Using, say 5 threads instead of 1 would allow it to continue doing things while it waits.
+
+Multiple connections can also vastly improve upload speeds for users with congested home internet connections.
