Shared Folders on Dropbox (for now). GitHub later.
Just double check that what goes in does come out. About 2.5 years ago I let Dropbox (Windows client) "backup" my Git repositories. Silently (unknown to me at the time), Dropbox decided to skip some files. So the backups ended up being useless. I ended up using Google Drive instead.
Just something to look out for and test - before you really need to rely on those backups.
On a side note... Git is a "distributed version control system". Every clone is a perfect copy of the repository. So you really don't need Dropbox to share content with others. Others can clone directly from your "public" directory on your machine (eg: in a LAN office environment).
