I've been using a free utility called FreeFileSync
(https://freefilesync.org/) to keep my image files with their sidecar
files (as well as other user files) synced between my Windows machines.
It seems to do the job well, and keeps the folder structure synced, as
well.

For the travelling laptop scenario, there's also a feature in
darktable called "local copies" that can be useful:

So, if I backup computer 'B' to an external drive .. then my main
computer 'A' can correctly be fully updated.
This is great for those who travel with a secondary system.

There is a script in Darktable's Lua repository, "Transfer Hierarchy,"
designed for the specific task of moving images between disks. It will
automatically transfer images from one directory tree to another while
preserving the existing directory hierarchy.

Is there a way to remap the image to new path? If not, how do you
handle this kind of scenario? File is still available, but at a new
path. Main storage does get full and because it's a laptop, I can not
connect another disk easily.
After you move the images to another location - right click on the film
row or folder, select search and locate your images - the program will
do the rest.
Also - if you work out of a shared disk (even an USB connected to a
router) DT does good work with the caching. It does fetch the raw file
but after that works out from the cache quite a bit (just an idea).
