I suppose if you were really paranoid you could use 'git archive' to snapshot to dropbox.

  Pushing to dropbox is a very common part of my workflow: https://github.com/rpetrich/git-dropbox https://github.com/rpetrich/git-dropbox It's not strictly safe to use from multiple machines, but as a simple backup it's very convenient.

  All of my git repos live in a subdirectory of my dropbox as-is. I also compulsively push to remote. I also use Time Machine. I also rsync my home directory to an external drive in case Time Machine implodes. I also rsync my home directory to a server in another hemisphere. Come at me, bro.

    The last point is a great idea. I've had my NAS Time Machine backup get corrupted and TM forcing me to redo a full backup a few times now to the point of me abandoning it entirely..

    It's been a while, but storing .git files in Dropbox didn't work out so hot for me. Make changes in two places and Dropbox resolves the conflict by renaming one file to "X (Eli's Conflicted Copy)".... Git really doesn't expect to see it's internal files renamed like that.

      The question then becomes "Why do I need more than one computer accessing git when computers now weigh 1kg?"
