What is Brig?

brig is a distributed & secure file synchronization tool with version control. It is based on IPFS, written in Go and will feel familiar to git users. Think of it as a swiss army knife for file synchronization or as a peer to peer alternative to Dropbox.

Key feature highlights:

Encryption of data during storage and transport, plus optional compression on the fly. Simplified git version control only limited by your storage space. Synchronization algorithm that can handle moved files and empty directories and files. Your data does not need to be stored on the device you are currently using. FUSE filesystem that feels like a normal sync folder. No central server at all. Still, central architectures can be build with brig. Gateway and Web based UI to share normal HTTP/S links with other users. Auto-updating facility that will sync on any change. Completely free software under the terms of the AGPL.
