Note, though, that many people report that those two (and spideroak) are not as fast as dropbox and/or not as easy to setup. Best, R. [1] Either a mechanism somewhat like Thierry suggested or a mechanism like the one, now incorporate into org (I think) and that was started with this thread from Jorge Alfaro: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2014-05/msg00422.html On Mon, 15-09-2014, at 16:51, Bruno Bigras wrote: > - Maybe http://git-annex.branchable.com/assistant/ (it seems the xmpp > feature is not activated on Windows right now but it could be the best > tool soon) > > - Maybe https://github.com/joeyh/git-remote-gcrypt with a free > bitbucket private repo.
