The new `git-annex export` feature allows you to export a tree
|
||||||
|
to a special remote, with the origiginal filenames being visible there.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
S3 should support it soon.

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.

|

* 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]]
