The git-annex assistant creates a synchronised folder on each of your OSX and Linux computers, Android devices, removable drives, NAS appliances, and cloud services. The contents of the folder are the same everywhere. It's very easy to use, and has all the power of git and git-annex.

installation

The git-annex assistant comes as part of git-annex. See install to get it installed.

See the release notes for an overview of the status, and upgrade instructions.

The git-annex assistant was crowd funded on Kickstarter. Thanks to all my backers.

I blog about my work on git-annex and the assistant on a daily basis in this blog. Follow along!

I really hope they can get annex working on os x 10.6. This is a great effort. Thanks
Sadly, I didn't know about this when the Kickstarter was underway - I'd be happy to chip in $100 if it means I can get annex assistant on Windows earlier.
Looks great, but I got the impression that Assistant would mirror the files from my computer to my external hard drive, and I can't seem to get it to do that.
assistant daemon now starts at boot and pushes all annexed files to other repos... I'd like to do it on my own. I can stop daemon from webapp, but it starts again on boot - how Do I disable it from autostarting ?
If you have a question about using the assistant, please ask it in the forum, not here.
