looking at the page title here, i'm tempted to simply point you to [[todo/Workflow_guide]] and therefore the new [[workflow]] page, but that may not answer your question directly. so let's see...
the the examples below, i'll assume you are familiar with the commandline and show examples using git and git-annex commands, since you mentioned that. but a lot of those things can be done with the web assistant, if not everything. but i am not very familiar with it, so you'll excuse my geekiness...
1. I want to start keeping track of some files I have in a directory
cd directory
git init
git annex init
git annex add \"some\" \"files\"
git commit -m\"start keeping track of some files\"
Note that you could track all files with `git annex add .` or `git annex add *`... regular glob patterns apply.
2. I want to copy them to a second computer.
This is the harder part. Here I'll assume that you have an SSH server on the first computer, which i'll name `firstcomputer`. If that's not your case, you can use the new [[special_remotes/tor]] to pair arbitrary machines with the [[tips/peer_to_peer_network_with_tor]] instructions instead of this.
On the second computer:
git clone firstcomputer:directory
cd directory
git annex get
3. From a third place, I want to get them from the second computer.
Same comments as above apply.
On the third computer:
git clone secondcomputer:directory
cd directory
git annex get
4. I change the files on one computer, and I want to make sure the changes get synced to the others.
This can be done manually with [[git-annex-sync]] (with the `--content` flag to copy actual content), or automated with the [[git-annex-assistant]] or [[git-annex-watch]].
