在我看来，Dropbox只适用于个人用途，因为你不想麻烦地获得一个中央回收主机。对于任何专业开发来说，你可能会制造更多的问题，而不是解决更多的问题，就像已经在帖子中多次提到的那样，Dropbox并不是为这个用例而设计的。也就是说，在没有任何第三方插件或工具的情况下，在Dropbox上转储存储库的一个非常安全的方法是使用捆绑包。我在我的.gitconfig中有以下别名以节省输入:

[alias]
        bundle-push = "!cd \"${GIT_PREFIX:-.}\" && if path=\"$(git config remote.\"$1\".url)\" && [ \"${path:0:1}\" = / ]; then git bundle create \"$path\" --all && git fetch \"$1\"; else echo \"Not a bundle remote\"; exit 1; fi #"
        bundle-fetch = "!cd \"${GIT_PREFIX:-.}\" && if path=\"$(git config remote.\"$1\".url)\" && [ \"${path:0:1}\" = / ]; then git bundle verify \"$path\" && git fetch \"$1\"; else echo \"Not a bundle remote\"; exit 1; fi #"
        bundle-new = "!cd \"${GIT_PREFIX:-.}\" && if [ -z \"${1:-}\" -o -z \"${2:-}\" ]; then echo \"Usage: git bundle-new <file> <remote name>\"; exit 1; elif [ -e \"$2\" ]; then echo \"File exist\"; exit 1; else git bundle create \"$2\" --all && git remote add -f \"$1\" \"$(realpath \"$2\")\"; fi #"

例子:

# Create bundle remote (in local repo)
$ git bundle-new dropbox ~/Dropbox/my-repo.bundle
# Fetch updates from dropbox
$ git bundle-fetch dropbox
# NOTE: writes over previous bundle. Thus, roughly equivalent to push --force --prune --all
$ git bundle-push

I've been using Mercurial in the recommended manner and urge that you be cautious, especially if any of the machines differ. The Dropbox fora are full of complaints of mysterious filename case problems turning up spontaneously. Hg (and I presume Git) won't notice or complain during routine checkins and you'll only hear about the corruption when it complains of a corrupt repo when you try to use it for real. Bad news. Wish I could be more specific about the problem and its workarounds; I'm still trying to dig out from this mess myself.

正确的方法是使用git-remote-dropbox: https://github.com/anishathalye/git-remote-dropbox

在Dropbox中创建自己的裸回购会导致很多问题。Anish(库的创造者)解释得很好:

The root cause of these problems is that the Dropbox desktop client is designed for syncing files, not Git repositories. Without special handling for Git repositories, it doesn’t maintain the same guarantees as Git. Operations on the remote repository are no longer atomic, and concurrent operations or unlucky timing with synchronization can result in a corrupted repository. Traditional Git remotes run code on the server side to make this work properly, but we can’t do that. Solution: It is possible to solve this properly. It is possible to use Git with Dropbox and have the same safety and consistency guarantees as a traditional Git remote, even when there are multiple users and concurrent operations! For a user, it’s as simple as using git-remote-dropbox, a Git remote helper that acts as a transparent bidirectional bridge between Git and Dropbox and maintains all the guarantees of a traditional Git remote. It’s even safe to use with shared folders, so it can be used for collaboration (yay unlimited private repos with unlimited collaborators!). With the remote helper, it’s possible to use Dropbox as a Git remote and continue using all the regular Git commands like git clone, git pull, and git push, and everything will just work as expected.

我们在共享文件夹上使用这种方法(在Dropbox中创建一个裸存储库)。

一小组开发人员可以从这个完全同步的存储库中提取数据，并创建一个本地克隆。一旦单位的功完成了，我们就回到原点。

我缺少的一件事是，在推送到原点时发送带有更改集信息的电子邮件的好方法。我们使用谷歌Wave来手动跟踪更改。

对于使用Dropbox的小型团队:

如果每个开发人员在Dropbox上都有自己的可写裸存储库，这只对其他开发人员开放，那么这就有利于代码共享而没有损坏的风险!

然后，如果你想要一个集中的“主线”，你可以让一个开发人员从自己的回购中管理所有推送。

我也遇到过类似的问题，并为此创建了一个小脚本。我们的想法是尽可能简单地使用Dropbox和Git。目前，我已经快速实现了Ruby代码，不久将添加更多代码。
