    help track git Work In Progress branches

  • One thing I'll point out is that, if those files are small enough, maybe just do full backups of them liberally. That might make it easier to replicate them, although not to do multi-master sync. In the past, I've used techniques similar to https://github.com/bartman/git-wip as well as just syncing a git repo folder between devices and handling conflicts in git in the past, although not currently. That kind of thing required some more polish, but could probably get you most of the way.

  • mackup

    Keep your application settings in sync (OS X/Linux)

  • I use sync.com for cloud-based storage. I put everything in there: org directory, photos, documents, etc. I use mackup and macprefs to backup apps, settings, etc, and put those in my sync.com's folder. I have to run mackup backup && macprefs backup manually occasionally. I autosave everything in my org directory every 100 characters or 10 seconds with this

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
