Looks like a really handy tool and essentially the logical endpoint of all the various hacky manual file watcher / scripted copy type sync things we end up doing to work across environments if they were developed into a full solution.
We work quite hard to maintain unified production/dev config for our docker-compose setups. Mutagen looks like it could simplify some of these since a whole layer of complexity comes from trying to optionally map ports and volumes in such a way that it works for development, while not being inappropriate in test/production. If instead, mutagen can virtually connect / synchronize these it'll be a lot simpler.
I do wonder a bit how debugging works .... if something is running in a container, it's great I can hot sync my code there, but what happens when I put a breakpoint in the code in my IDE?
