Mirall

Introduction

Mirall synchronizes your folders with another computer.

The ultimate goals of Mirall are:

Network location aware: should not try to sync against your NAS if you are not in the home network
It is a zero-interaction tool. So forget about resolving conflicts.
It should work silently and realiably.

Mirall is in early stages of development, and may still eat your files or hang your computer.

Network location awareness not implemented yet
Current version supports local and remote (sftp and smb) folders.
It is powered by csync (http://www.csync.org), however the user does not know and other tools will be incorporated to provide other functionality.

Current issues

No sane way to backup conflicting versions yet, this should be solved in a near csync release (--conflictcopy, available in Jann's branch). Right now the newest copy wins.
You can't remove folder configurations Workaround: delete ~/.local/share/data/Mirall/folders/$alias and restart
Some tasks block the GUI (initial setup of watchers)
May be some concurrency issues

Roadmap

Improve robustness to minimize user interaction
Improve feedback and sync results
Add support for other folder types: tarsnap, duplicity, git (SparkleShare)

Requirements

Linux (currently it uses inotify to detect file changes)
unison installed in the local and remote machine (you should not care if you got Mirall with your favorite distribution)
