The problem with git is that you need to make sure you pull before starting to make changes. This can also be solved by a script. Please let us know when you have a working workflow.

And now I’m starting the get confused. magit is just the emacs mode for git, if you don't have it and use git you should really install it. But it does not sync anything you still have to M-x magit F F and M-x magit P P, for pull and push. I have several computers and synchronize my org files with git. I think it is the best option because I do not have to worry about the sync not working (for example when I do not have a connection) and conflicts in the files. -- Jorge.

I use unison and it works like a charm, allowing me to keep 4+ systems in complete sync. The easiest alternative I can think of is Dropbox or equivalent, if you want "automation". --=20 : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 25.0.50.2, Org release_8.3.1-234-g8c85c9 From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Eric Abrahamsen Subject: Re: Favorite way of syncing?

I don't think Magit helps much, in fact I'd be better off writing functions for `emacs-startup-hook' and `kill-emacs-hook' that do my pushes and pulls for me. But for now, I just try to remember to commit and push before I leave a machine. This way, you also really learn to appreciate using "git fetch" and "git status", rather than doing a blind "git pull".

I use Unison for settings like d= otfiles=2C since with unison you don't have to put files into a specific fo= lder or use symlinks. =3B
I miss versioning of Dropbox=2C but it is= okay since settings do not change that frequently. I just back up everythi= ng every day.

I use AeroFS for sensitive data and = Dropbox for other things.

I keep four computers in sync this way, and also use it to send/receive the org files (with MobileOrg) to/from android devices. It is as automatic as I can think of. Once set up, I have to do nothing and it just works. If you are familiar with BTsync you can think of syncthing as somewhat similar (but much better, and free software). It is possible to enable a rudimentary form of version control with syncthing itself, but I don't (the files change too often). Instead, one of the computers (which should always be on) is also running Seafile (https://www.seafile.com/en/home/), which actually I think uses git as a backend, so I can recover disasters. Syncthing provides conflict detection. It is not git, but it is enough for me with org files (I rarely edit in two or machines at the same time, and the last machine where I make a change is often connected before I work on another so I do not often have a chance for conflict). [In the past, I used dropbox ---instead of syncthing, though syncthing is not exactly a one-to-one replacement---, and nightly cron jobs that committed the org directory in one of the machines to a bzr repo ---instead of the seafile part--- for disaster recovery.] > So far, I’ve also read that people use TRAMP in conjunction with an SSH Server (and work exclusively on this SSH server). > I’ve also read about org-sync and magit (git is an option for me). > And now I’m starting the get confused. > I use magit and git for version control but I do not find formal version control very useful with my org files. I like to be able to finish something, stop the timer on the laptop, and a second later put it to hibernate and leave my house/office, without the need for a commit and push, and knowing that all of that has been synced to all the other machines that are on and connected. I know, though, that other people feel differently.

This works regardless of whether you decide to check your changes into git annex (which tracks versions of a file and where it exists but not the actual content) or track the content as usual with git. I don't do this for my Org files (like Myles, I use plain git and a central bare repo), but I use git annex for other files whose content I don't want to track with git.

Has anyone on this list information in programming those? The only thing I can think of that might be worth noting is that `kill-emacs-hook' is meant for non-interactive hooks. If you want your hook to query the user, you're supposed to use `kill-emacs-query-functions' instead.

If the content is sensitive you can either encrypt the data yourself before it goes to Dropbox (see e.g. ecryptfs) or use a service that does this as part of its process (see e.g. spideroak). Not that I have anything against doing thing other ways - I'm just pointing out that privacy concerns don't, of themselves, mean you can't use Dropbox (or similar).

Sure, you are correct. However, if there are Android devices in the mix, encrypting locally before sending to Dropbox becomes inconvenient (or at least too inconvenient for me). I am not sure about spideroak's support for android, and I recall having experienced problems (I no longer remember the details) with Wuala.
