Are there other academics out there who don’t bother with the cumbersome manuscript-date-version-final-FINAL.doc saving of drafts? Don’t get me wrong, I used to do that. Then I realized that I never ever used or needed the old drafts. Never.pic.twitter.com/w5ohTNUFhm

How do you make that work? I'm trying to set up an R project w/git version control for my dissertation and it'd be great to have my documents there too, but right now the repo is cloned to a folder on my lab computer since I hear git and Dropbox are not a good combo.

(This is probably me not understanding git very well yet, but...) Is there a way to sync files in that repo to multiple locations so I can also access those files from my laptop without having to go to github and download/upload? i.e., similar-ish functionality to Dropbox.

Replying to @sarenseeley @wgervais
Github is just a website, which provides git as a service. You do not need to ever visit the website to use git — you do however need to use the command line. Check here for a short intro I wrote if you have no idea where to start:http://neuroplausible.com/github

The short answer is, if I understood your question, you have to use the CLI to fetch and then if appropriate pull the repo to all the computers you need the files on.
