Unison is a file-synchronization tool for Unix and Windows. It allows two
|
|
|
|
|
replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different
|
|
|
|
|
hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then
|
|
|
|
|
brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other.

Unlike simple mirroring or backup utilities, Unison can deal with updates
|
|
|
|
|
to both replicas of a distributed directory structure. Updates that do not

conflict are propagated automatically. Conflicting updates are detected and
|
|
|
|

displayed.

Unison allows you to either build a text only binary or a binary that will

|
|
|
use a graphical user interface. To build the gtk2 graphical inteface
|
|
|
|
|
binary, which is the default option, do this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"FLAVOR=gtk2 ./unison.SlackBuild" or just "./unison.SlackBuild"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build a textonly binary, do this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"FLAVOR=text ./unison.SlackBuild"
|
