It's neat because it can be used on top of git without any additional effort but it'd be more interesting to see something that leverages git's server-side post-push hook to notify the other clients about changes. gitdocs, depending on the polling interval, either has an increased probability of causing merge conflicts or does a crazy amount of git pulls.


Actually, it uses file system events so the pushes occur instantly. However, the pulls are done with polling.


I don't see any reason they can't add this later. Get something that works first, then make it better.
