A "git annex watch" command would help make git-annex usable by users who
|
|
don't know how to use git, or don't want to bother typing the git commands.
|
|
It would run, in the background, watching via inotify for changes, and
|
|
automatically annexing new files, etc.
|
|
|
|
The blue sky goal would be something automated like dropbox, except fully
|
|
distributed. All files put into the repository would propagate out
|
|
to all the other clones of it, as network links allow. Note that while
|
|
dropbox allows modifying files, git-annex freezes them upon creation,
|
|
so this would not be 100% equivalent to dropbox. --[[Joey]]
