I'm looking for something well suited for syncing folders full of large media (eg photos, music) across several machines, ideally with revisions.
I'm using SparkleShare for text and other small files, but Git is not well suited for managing large binaries, because it wastes time trying to compress them, and it requires, at the very least, 2X + delta space.
I would have both Linux and Mac clients; Android and/or iOS would be a bonus.
If I find nothing else, it may end up being rsync scripts with cron jobs, though I'm not terribly excited about that.
Git compression can be disabled. Also; is streaming on demand out of the question?

To the streaming question: yes, it's out. We need to be able to access/modify files off-line as well. – Bryan Agee – 2012-04-19T17:40:56.897
Is Subversion out of the question? You can access/modify files off-line, but you can't commit changes without connecting. – Kevin Vermeer – 2012-08-17T17:16:41.063
