SGit Vaults: inside a vault, and its history

A vault holds folders and files, like a folder on a computer, with every change kept as a signed commit.

Every guide · Ideas and where they stand

1. A vault.

A vault looks like a folder on a computer. The line at the top tells you whether everything in it has reached the server, which matters before you tell a teammate it is there.

1. Whether everything is on the server, on this device only, or on its way in.
2. Folders, with how many files and how large.
3. Files: a picture shows a thumbnail. Tap one to open it, save it or share it.
4. Add photos, videos or files.
5. Share the vault with somebody.
6. More: history, saving a folder out, and the rest.

2. History.

Every change to a vault is kept as a signed commit, so you can see who added what and when, and that nobody has altered it since.

1. Each change, newest first, grouped by day.
2. Who made it: this device, or another.
3. Each change is signed, and the signature is checked.
