Please describe the problem.

I added an adb special remote (to a fresh repo) with androiddirectory=/storage/self/primary/DCIM and while importing fetches all the files from the device, they are not all added to the repo. For example, all the thumbnail files seem to be stored, but of the 9 mp4 files in DCIM/Camera fetched, only 1 is stored.

While git-annex does mention that "there was an error fetching files, rerun to resume", there is no error output anywhere I could see (e.g. with --debug). All the file fetches are shown as "OK".

Making the special remote with androiddirectory=/storage/self/primary/DCIM/Camera instead, results in the 9 files being fetched and stored as expected.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

git init android
git annex init mycomputer
git annex initremote int_dcim type=adb androiddirectory=/storage/self/primary/DCIM encryption=none exporttree=yes importtree=yes
git annex import --from int_dcim master:somedir

Have you had any luck using git-annex before?
