Indeed, I'm now considering splitting things up. For example. I may put code repositories (not yet in an RCS) into GIT or SVN (which is installed on my managed vhost). Other stuff then goes into DropBox, at first some and - depending on how good it proves - later maybe more. The "other stuff" doesn't contain symlinks. What I really don't like about DropBox is that there currently is no API and that there currently is only a closed source client. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GitHub" group.
