I'm an academic. I use git for some projects. I would love something between git and Dropbox: Dropbox's ease of use and automation, but git's ability to add branches. I've struggled to persuade co-authors to use git. There is too much to learn.
- qmmmur 6y agoYeah, I learned git because my supervisor was using it on a research project. I made a few mistakes but he helped me mop them up and correct them. Now I use it for everything - I honestly dont see how I could go back. I cringe now everytime I see someone with multiple copies of a file with version numbers on it. I too have tried educating colleagues on it but it doesn't stick unless you really need to use it + intertia of having an established working method.
