AI summary
RSAF is an Android document provider that bridges rclone remotes to the Storage Access Framework, letting any SAF-compatible file manager access cloud and network storage. Supports all rclone backends including OAuth, server-side copy/move, and can masquerade as local storage for apps that block remote roots. Recent update disables HTTP/2 globally to work around golang throughput limitations.

About this app
RSAF is an Android document provider for the wonderful rclone. It allows any app that supports Android's Storage Access Framework (SAF) to access remote files via rclone's backends.
RSAF is not itself a file manager, but any file manager supporting SAF, including the one built into Android (Settings -> Storage -> Documents), can make use of it.
Features
- Supports Android 9 and newer - Supports all rclone remote backends, including those that require OAuth 2.0 - Supports importing and exporting the rclone configuration file - Supports random reads - Supports server-side copy/move for rclone backends implementing this feature - Supports client applications that request access to a file descriptor - Supports client applications that open entire directories with ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE - Supports pretending to be local storage for apps that block remote SAF roots - No required permissions besides network access
File operation semantics
When creating, renaming, copying, or moving a file/directory, RSAF will add a counter to the filename to try and avoid conflicts (eg. file(1).txt) if the target path already exists. This matches the Storage Access Framework's behavior for local files, though RSAF extends this to copying/moving instead of just file creation/renaming. However, this feature cannot be implemented in a completely foolproof way. If two client applications try to create files with the same name at the same time, they still might end up clobbering each other's data, even with the added counter.
Usage
1. Download the latest APK.
2. Import an existing rclone configuration or configure one from scratch within RSAF.
3. That's it! The configured remotes are now available via the Storage Access Framework.

What's new
- NOTE: Due to Google's new pricing policy, rclone will be revoking their OAuth client ID soon, which will break Google Drive and Google Photos access. See Issue #320 for more details.
- Disable HTTP/2 globally (Issue #326, PR #327) Works around golang HTTP client limitations that previously resulted in low throughput (upstream bug report). Fix git submodules not being rebuilt in certain scenarios (PR #323) Update golang to 1.26.6 (PR #325) Update dependencies (PR #328)
