Is there an easy GUI application for non-tech-savvies that enables automatic (i.e. on copy/create/delete file) syncing to a git remote. It should be actively maintained, preferably cross-platform Windows/Linux (but if not then at least for Windows). Like SparkleShare, just more actively maintained (especially it's Windows client).

I am sorry but using GIT for non-tech users is IMHO a bad idea. Git is that complex that it requires even for developers a long time to understand the basic commands. better use a tool like nextcloud/DropBox or similar for file transfer that is easier to understand for regular users.– RobertCommented Oct 14, 2020 at 11:41

We use git with SparkleShare over year now with non-tech users and it works great. They use it just for uploading files. But I can do advanced stuff if needs be. The only problem we face is that SparkleShare (for Windows) is not being maintained and bugs are not fixed. Otherwise the workflow is perfect.– user1876484Commented Oct 14, 2020 at 11:48
