Is there any way to get around the fact that adding a new machine involves adding N*2 remotes? (That is, one remote on each of the current machines to represent the new one; and then on the new machine, one remote for each existing machine). This seems like it would be the sticking point with Git annex.
- icebraining 13y agoThat's what the new Assistant (now part of git-annex) is for! Tons of pairing work, which culminated today in pairing fully working for the very first time. And it works great! Type something like "my hovercraft is full of eels" into two git annex webapps on the same LAN and the two will find each other, automatically set up ssh keys, and sync up, like magic. Magic based on math. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/joeyh/git-annex-assistant-like-dropbox-but-with-your-own/ http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/joeyh/git-annex-assistan... http://git-annex.branchable.com/assistant/local_pairing_walkthrough/ http://git-annex.branchable.com/assistant/local_pairing_walk...
