Hi there, You have to define what you mean with "folder sharing". If you mean being able to share a repository with someone, that is already possible. If you mean only a sub-directory, that probably won't be possible due to heterogeneity of the storage types.
Take IMAP, for instance: if you have access to an IMAP account, there is no way of restricting the access to only a few files. With FTP or S3, however, this _would_ be possible. However, due to their entirely different concepts, I don't think that folder sharing will ever be implemented -- at least not without a server component. If we had a trusted server, we could simply let the server do "access control". This will probably come at some point. But not in the near future. @Jason: two users never write the same file. No locking, no race conditions. :-D Cheers, Philipp On Tue, Jun 21, 2011 at 9:50 PM, Jason Irwin <[email protected]> wrote: > I don't want to reply publicly as I'm not really a spokesperson for the > project. > > But surely this is down the repository used?
