  • git-sync

    Safe and simple one-script git synchronization (by simonthum)

  • Before I came to macos I was using stow to keep all my dotfiles in one place. Then they were being copied nightly to a private github repo with git-sync which, as you know, is nice for versioning. I also had the central dotfile folder in a syncthing folder, so all my configs were always the same on any machine I used. If I update anything on one computer, it's changed on the other automatically. I also have a VPS that's participating, and somewhat acting as an always-on central sync server to keep everything recent.

  • syncthing-android

    Wrapper of syncthing for Android.
