在MacOS上，你也可以停止Dropbox，进行更改，然后重新启动Dropbox。 我正在使用以下组合，我很满意:

在这两个(本地git托管项目目录和位于Dropbox上的远程git存储库)中运行以下命令来禁用自动打包(这是Dropbox同步的主要问题)

git config --global gc.auto 0

然后不时地，压缩存储库dropbox禁用。例如，每当我发布应用程序的新版本时，我都会在bash-build-脚本中执行以下操作。

osascript -e "tell application \"Dropbox\" to quit"

# Compress local
git gc --prune=now; git repack -a -d

# Compress remote
REPOS_DIR_REMOTE=`git remote get-url --push origin`
cd "${REPOS_DIR_REMOTE}"
git gc --prune=now; git repack -a -d

osascript -e "tell application \"Dropbox\" to launch"
osascript -e "display notification with title \"Compress Done\""

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.

现在是2015年，就在三天前，一个基于Dropbox API v2的新工具已经被创建出来，可以安全地在Dropbox上使用git。它针对API工作，而不是使用桌面客户端，并正确地处理多个同时推送到共享文件夹中托管的存储库。

一旦配置，它允许设置一个完全像其他git远程一样的git远程。

git clone "dropbox::/path/to/repo"
git remote add origin "dropbox::/path/to/repo"

我把我的非github回购存储在Dropbox上。我遇到的一个警告是重新安装后的同步。Dropbox会先下载最小的文件，然后再下载较大的文件。如果你从晚上开始，周末后再回来，这不是问题:-)

我不想把我所有的项目都放在一个Git存储库下，也不想为每个项目运行这些代码，所以我编写了一个Bash脚本来自动化这个过程。你可以在一个或多个目录上使用它——所以它可以为你完成这篇文章中的代码，也可以一次在多个项目上完成。
