Could be wrong, but I think the synchtex files produced by builds are for that. I usually have the PDF open in one Emacs buffer (you can view pdfs in Emacs), and the TeX file open in another. Ctrl-left click in the PDF jumps to the spot in the text buffer for that spot in the PDF, and in the TeX buffer there is a keybinding to do the reverse. Probably a way to click and get there too, but I use the keybinding. > I'm assuming you need to host an emacs server No, Emacs runs locally and interfaces with the cloned git repo on your machine. Your collaborators could use Notepad for all Emacs cares, as long as they work in the same repo and push to the shared remote.
