And I'm using a similar setup to the hourly commit cron job of Rainer's but with the following script so it removes deleted files too. This works over multiple org repositories. ,----[ org-git-sync.sh ] | #!/bin/sh | # Add org file changes to the repository | REPOS="org doc.norang.ca www.norang.ca" | | for REPO in $REPOS | do | echo "Repository: $REPO" | cd ~/git/$REPO | # Remove deleted files | git ls-files --deleted -z | xargs -0 git rm >/dev/null 2>&1 | # Add new files | git add . >/dev/null 2>&1 | git commit -m "$(date)" | done `---- ,----[ crontab entry ] | 0 * * * * ~/bin/org-git-sync.sh >/dev/null `---- If I want to manually update I just run the org-git-sync.sh script at the shell prompt. Usually I do that when moving files to/from my laptop - so I commit all the changes to the repos and then push/pull the commits. I've also added a .gitignore file to skip files created by exporting ,----[ .gitignore ] | *.html | *~ | .#* | \#*\# | *.txt | *.tex | *.aux | *.dvi | *.log | *.out | *.ics | *.pdf `---- so files created by exporting are not automatically added to the repo. I can still explicitly add .pdf files as attachments if necessary so that they become tracked. -Bernt _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
