If you can 'ssh' to your phone, can you install some "flavor" of 'sshfs'? If
so, then it seems like you could mount your phone over 'sshfs' on a machine with
'rdiff-backup' installed, then do what looks like a backup of a local directory
(but is really the 'sshfs' mount point). Mind you, I've never tried this. Just
a thought. I _have_ used 'exfat' over USB but that has serious issues with file
metadata (date, time, etc.).
