This tool helps you stay distributed by keeping a server somewhere that constantly backs up all your repos. With this you can't accidentally forget to make a copy if you make a quick repo in a coffee shop somewhere, and delete the local copy days later when you're cleaning up.

Or you could mirror to multiple repositories with one push. I write about how to use Github & Bitbucket simultaneously here: http://deanclatworthy.com/2013/01/how-to-avoid-relying-on-gi...

Wow, that's a pretty neat approach! How well does that work with multiple people?

I can't imagine it would be that difficult with multiple people.

Even if they pulled from one or the other, so long as someone merges the changes from the missing repo, everyone will be good to go.

This is a pretty unique approach to multiple git servers.
