Credit for the Dropbox api interface goes to Dropbox.
# Install
Clone the git repository in your home folder.
git clone git://github.com/TobiasTheViking/dropboxannex.git

# Setup
Make the file executable, and link it into PATH
cd ~/dropboxannex; chmod +x git-annex-remote-dropbox; sudo ln -sf `pwd`/git-annex-remote-dropbox /usr/local/bin/git-annex-remote-dropbox
# Commands for gitannex:
git annex initremote dropbox type=external externaltype=dropbox encryption=shared folder=gitannex
git annex describe dropbox "the dropbox library"
* rclone supports the Dropbox API,
