Help me choose a goal for the month of December. The last poll showed
|
|
a lot of interest in using the git-annex assistant with phones, etc.
|
|
|
|
Background: git-annex uses symbolic links in its repositories. This makes it
|
|
hard to use with filesystems, such as FAT, that do not support symbolic links.
|
|
FAT filesystems are the main storage available on some Android devices that
|
|
have a micro-SD card. Other, newer Android devices don't have a SD card and so
|
|
avoid this problem.
|
|
|
|
I can either work on the idea described in
|
|
[[design/assistant/desymlink]], which could solve the symlink problem and
|
|
also could lead to a nicer workflow to editing files that are stored in
|
|
git-annex.
|
|
|
|
Or, I can work on [[Android_porting|design/assistant/android]], and try to
|
|
get the assistant working on Android's built-in storage.
|
|
|
|
[[!poll open=no 81 "solve the symlink problem first" 17 "port to Android first" 1 "other"]]
