I had the exact same thing, granted, it was ten years ago already, with dropbox. Something something file versioning, ending up with neighboring files of conflicting revisions, the disease spreading over to all instances. My takeaway was „never keep git repos in a system that does its own distributed versioning”. I just do git push around so my remotes are up to date. Git is sort of dropbox with a manual gearbox, after all (and more, but that’s not the point). I’m really unsure that this is a kind of easily solvable problem for either dropbox or syncthing. Unless your syncing product gets smart enough to understand what a git repository is and how some files have to be checked in in lockstep, that is. Otherwise, expect race conditions.
