Why would I use this compared to cloning my codebase/repo in my the other machine in a minute and continue my work? Or, use rsync to sync it across devices, or other means?


Your question is answered fairly comprehensively by the other comments on this page which were posted before yours.


Thanks for your reply, I thought they did but not entirely, it was all listing use cases that are specific, like a student or onboarding or using phone/tablet, which is all fair and useful in those cases maybe, but in a “normal” scenario, I find that might be an issue especially from security perspective, more machines connected means more access and possible unauthorized access in theory at least. As for the environment setup, using nixos can solve that hurdle as well.
