No code yet, just a draft for the protocol. I think I'll probably want to get back to that in not too long. (Globus may also want to use that.)

If I read the page/history of that page on git annex website, import is supported now, right @joeyh ?

No, not for external remotes. Only for (some?) internal ones, like S3 and directory. The page still states (This part is a draft, not implemented yet.) and there hasn't been any release note saying otherwise. (I follow them quite thoroughly because of this particular feature ;) )
