I’ve written a plugin app for Tasker which
allows running rsync over SSH from your Android device.
This currently has some rough edges (no support for host-key verification,
unclear error messages) but I’m using it on a daily basis to backup files from
and sync photos & music to my phone and am pleased to report that it works well.
Sadly Google rejected my submission of this app to the Play Store (and my
subsequent appeal), due to the use of the MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission
which is needed for the app to be at all useful. This unfortunately means that
the app has to be manually downloaded and installed but I will be adding an
update notification in the near future to make it easier to keep updated.
