Just to be sure, org-mobile-push copies all flies listed in org-mobile-files to org-mobile-directory and creates an index and checksum file. After you have made changes, you then use org-mobile-pull and that will pull any changes (from dropbox etc) into your original .org files. I think this is the main function of the index.org. No teasing required. I saw mention earlier about the docs so I thought I should mention the official doc is quite good, it probably explains it better than me.
