+I'm quite sure that syncing with a extporttree=yes special remote does not
+alter the working tree or the usual index beyond the sync command's usual
+commit of any staged changes. It writes the tree using `git mktree` 
+and `git commit-tree`.
+
+I have tried to reproduce this, without any luck. I used a directory
+special remote not adb, but that should not possibly change anything.

+
+Also, I don't understand what you mean by this:
+
+	This branch isn't supposed to be pushed anywhere and generates tons of conflicts every time
+
+What do these conflicts look like? When do they happen?
+
+Please show a transcript of the problem happening. Ideally starting with a
+fresh git repository and showing all steps you used to set it up.
