Unison File Synchronizer
Unison is a file-synchronization tool for Unix and Windows. See the manual for a detailed look at it's capabilities.
Unison comes in two flavors:
- Text mode only version (debian package name: unison)
- GTK-based visual version (debian package name: unison-gtk)
Unison can sync
- between two directory trees on the same computer or
- between directory trees on two separate machines.
For syncing desktop machine and neo we use the latter. The recommended way to do this is the remote shell method.
