Git might be overkill for this -- and would likely require more storage because it keeps old copies of files when those files are changed.
I suggested git because I have found it useful for deploying changes from a local working directory to my web servers. It sounded like you might be doing something similar This command can list changes made:
Code:
git log --name-only --oneline
It accepts additional parameters to limit the output or by who committed, etc.
You don't need github for git to work. You can install it locally. On Debian or Ubuntu, you can install it using apt
Code:
sudo apt-get install git
The setup would be that you have a repo somewhere on your machine. You create your own working directory where you push changes to the repo. Then you could clone this repo to your "copy" directory and just pull changes periodically.
