+The new `git annex export` command can be used for this. It exports the
+current tree of files to a special remote. If your Android device can be
+mounted to the filesystem, you can initremote a directory special remote on
+it, and then export to it.
+
+It would also be possible to make a special remote that uses `adb` or some
+other method to manipulate the files on the Android device, rather than
+going via the directory special remote.
+
+The main downside is, if you modify files on the Android device, or add new
+files, there's no way to commit the changes from there back to
+your git repository.

@@ -10,3 +10,6 @@ I know this would have several downsides:
* much more exposed to corruption (no checksum to check against recorded? or can this be put somewhere else?)
The main advantage, for me, is much better interoperability: any remote becomes usable by other non-git-annex clients... It would also be great as it would allow me to store only a *part* of my git-annex files on a remote without having a forest of empty files (on broken filesystems) or symlinks (on real filesystems) for files that are missing, something that is a massive source of confusion for users I work with. It could, for example, allow me to create thumb drives that would solve the [[hide missing files]] problem. -- [[anarcat]]
