我认为Dropbox上的Git很棒。我一直在用它。我有多台电脑(两台在家里，一台在公司)，我把Dropbox作为一个中央的存储库。因为我不想把它托管在公共服务上，而且我也没有可以通过SSH访问的服务器，Dropbox通过在后台同步来解决这个问题(非常快)。

设置是这样的:

~/project $ git init
~/project $ git add .
~/project $ git commit -m "first commit"
~/project $ cd ~/Dropbox/git

~/Dropbox/git $ git init --bare project.git
~/Dropbox/git $ cd ~/project

~/project $ git remote add origin ~/Dropbox/git/project.git
~/project $ git push -u origin master

从那里，你可以克隆~/Dropbox/git/项目。git目录(无论它是否属于你的Dropbox帐户或在多个帐户之间共享)并执行所有正常的git操作-它们将自动同步到你所有的其他机器。

我写了一篇博客文章“关于版本控制”，其中介绍了环境设置背后的原因。它基于我的Ruby on Rails开发经验，但实际上它可以应用于任何东西。

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:-)

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.

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。

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。
