&gt; As far as I know, git-remote-dropbox is the only safe way to host a Git repository on Dropbox.<p>I&#x27;ve another hackish method that&#x27;s good enough for a single developer, plus it&#x27;s encrypted.<p>I&#x27;ve got a truecrypt file container that resides in Dropbox. I mount it as read-write when I want to push. On the rest of my machines, its mounted as read-only. Even if the container is 100GB, it takes 10 seconds to sync daily commits - because of block encryption &amp; syncing. This won&#x27;t work with Google &#x2F; MS &#x2F; Amazon drive etc. because they upload the entire container on each incremental change.
