Hi,

For me it is git using a central &qu= ot;server". I push from the clients to the server and pull from the se= rver only. Never on a device to device base, because most of the time the d= evices can't see each other (different networks).


Hope that helps

Torsten

I think the issue with tools like Unison, Dropbox, is conflict<= br> resolution on simultaneous edits. =A0Traditional version control does a
better job of that, but then it loses the convenience of these other
tools.

I believe there is a list member (Alan) close to Unison development; in
the thread referenced by Samuel there is some discussion on how this
could be done in a more well defined manner.

Hope this helps,

Open source is the future. It sets us free.
