But I'm trying to decide on the best way to perform syncronization so that changes on pivotal (which may be made by team members) are correctly synced with my local changes, and vice versa. I'm hoping for suggestions (links OK) on a clean way to perform this synchronization. One option would be to convert local and remote to org and then ediff the products; is there a more automatic way of which I should be aware? - Tory
