No, I don't think so. That's why the instructions talk about the
'staging area'.
So my system is: I have my 'real' orgmode files in Dropbox, but
not in my MobileOrg directory. I then have a command in Emacs
that when I press C-c g, my .org files are committed to git, and
org-mobile-push is called to copy them to the dropbox/MobileOrg
directory. I then can sync from the ipod and have them there.
I can make changes on the device, marking items as done and taking
notes.
When I come back to my desk, I use a command bound to C-c p to
call org-mobile-pull. I also have auto-revert-mode enabled for
org files, so all changes simply appear on screen in my org
files.
