MEGA on the other hand offer 50gb in the free tier (sweet) and has a dropbox-like client, easy to install and configure, with a classic web interface. Works great with ‘.git/’ and ‘node_modules/’īoth Bittorrent Sync and MEGA seemed nice, the first as a private approach, you probably have to get a VPS or a Raspberry Pi in order to have an always on server. Seafile (thx Hugo) also allows a ‘seafile-ignore.txt’ file with file and folder patterns to be excluded.gitignore) in Preferences – Advanced – Exclude file names MEGA (yes, Megaupload) has a way built-in in his client to ignore folders/files with regexp (exactly the same as.Bittorrent Sync has a way to ignore files using a IgnoreList.Oh come on, there should be a solution, we are in the cloud era, every developer has this problem!!

So i searched a bit and found a couple of way to try to do it with the dropbox protocol that includes using external scripts, and totally no way with google drive except using symlinks. Other trash folders left by the various IDE (nbproject folder) or OS (Thumbs.db files)Įverybody have tried a npm install with devastating consequences for poor cloud clients and it’s a known fact that in the long run both dropbox/drive will corrupt a git repo.NPM modules (node_modules folders) or Bower components (bower_components folders).Google Drive client is super slow and takes ages to init but i tend to use a lot the whole google suite on the web and it’s really integrated well (history, revisions, etc)īUT as any other web developer i have this big, nasty problem of not wanting to sync:.Dropbox is great with Heroku which has a sync plugin (super-sweet!!) and its client is fast and not memory wasting.I bet everybody has his own cloud solution for syncing it’s folders from home to work, viceversa and between devices.īefore today i always relied on a Dropbox / Google Drive combo depending on the project:
