SparkleShare
Version-controlled collaboration and sharing of files
SparkleShare is a Free and Open Source collaboration app based on Git. It allows people who are not software developers or otherwise technical (designers, lawyers, academics, etc.) to collaborate and share files with projects that use Git as a version control system. It is available on Linux, macOS, and Windows. SparkleShare provides an automatic sync algorithm and a friendly user interface to review recent changes and restore files from history. The project is to revive the codebase by porting it to Rust and bringing it up-to-date with modern security and user interface standards, starting with Linux and releasing on Flathub, so that it can remain a useful tool for years to come.
