Greetings. Here is my desired usage scenario:
I have setup a server and three laptops which I am syncing over ssh. Each laptop may access the server, but because different people are using each of the laptops, they may not sync between laptops for security/privacy.
Each of the laptops will be adding content to the repository, and each of the laptops will be using the new content that the others have added.
Currently, in order to make all content available to all users, I'm having to ssh into the server and use git annex get . every time new content is added from one of the laptops, which is a pain. Is there a way to require a local copy of all content in a given repository so that is pulled/pushed automatically? I would like for each laptop to be able to add new content to their copies of the repository and sync with the server, after which each other laptop can access the content through the server.
Thanks!
git annex sync --content, which will make the laptops upload new files to the server before they push the git repository to it, or by using the git-annex assistant (on the laptops or perhaps on the server) to automatically copy files. Either way, you configure preferred content settings to control which repositories want which files.
