Seems to me that this could easily be dealt with by installing git-annex on the webserver, making the directory there a git repository, and using either a cron job or `git annex watch` to commit files as they were changed there.
Then you can make a direct mode, indirect mode, or even a bare clone on your local machine and use git-annex to get the files.
Maybe you have good reasons for not wanting to go that route. And rsync on a direct mode repository should work, provided to tell it to not delete `.git`. :P I don't see any way to make rsync work in an indirect mode repository. As for trying to make git-annex handle this import over rsync itself in a way that would work in an indirect mode repository, let alone a bare repository -- I don't see a good way to do it and it seems quite special case and likely to get quite complicated to implement.
In the meantime, I did implement `git annex mirror`, which I think is a much more interesting and generally useful tool to have. And could even be used in my recommended solution above.
