SparkleShare 0.2 Alpha 1
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
SparkleShare is a file sharing and collaboration tool inspired by Dropbox.
|
|
|
|
SparkleShare isn't just a piece of software, it's part of your workflow. It's
|
|
designed to make sharing documents and collaboration easier, and to make peers
|
|
aware of what you are doing. It allows you to instantly sync with any Git
|
|
repository you have access to. The user interface and features are made to
|
|
support this goal. Though SparkleShare is not made to be a graphical frontend
|
|
for git or a backup tool, it may be useful for other kinds of purposes as well,
|
|
like backing up small files or monitoring your favourite project. In contrast
|
|
to the projects name, we will very likely refuse to implement your personal
|
|
ponies.
|
|
|
|
SparkleShare currently only works on Linux/GNOME.
|
|
Windows and OSX ports are planned for the future.
