[rsync]
Here's an example. I'm no expert but this works for me. Other more
experienced users might want to chime in.
rsync is a nice program and I use it several times each day. However,
it only knows how to synchronize _files_. Yes, it does incremental
transfers, but this does not help with the way Yojimbo stores its
entries (single file).
If, for instance, you add an entry on both ends rsync won't be able to
synchronize the Yojimbo DB because it simply does not know how to
merge it. Consequently one of the entries will be irreversibly lost
afterwards.
Usually things do not change much when an application stores its items
in distinct files because you'd still need to maintain the index.
Well, why not ditch the index as well? I asked this question once to
myself and soon found out that I can not answer it. It would more or
less mean to "go back" and organize things in files within the file
system. Without Yojimbo. Why not? Dunno.
Nowadays we have things like spotlight, smart folders, quicklook. I am
looking forward to the next Yojimbo version to find out how it will
fit into this and if it still feels better to keep things organized
within Yojimbo.
