BTW, I think that using dropbox in a git controlled directory
might not be a good idea: if there are conflicts of files inside
of the .git directory between two machines, you will never notice
them because dropbox doesn't report them, so the actual git repos
might be different between the two machines. I you are using git,
why don't you clone the main org directory in the other machine
and pull changes when you use the other machine?
Best,
