Since I'm on Via Rail, and the Via Rail connectivity situation is... typical, does anyone On Here have a preferred approach to local/remote sync that's robust in the face of serious network sporadicity?
I could gin something together with rsync but I'm hoping there's something out there prebuilt; that feels like zero lag local editing, that stores deltas and pushes them to remote in some reliable way as soon as the far end reappears.
It feels like a database-reliability shaped problem.
@mhoye We keep trying to reinvent Lotus Notes. I remember I gave a presentation at my local Linux User's Group about Coda last millennium, which worked this way. Nowadays mostly I use Git, but Git doesn't sync opportunistically, which is what you want. Fossil does, but I haven't tried Fossil.
