I decided not to use AeroFS because it's a proprietary service -- likely to go the way of the Dodo bird someday. 
I chose to use git-annex and the git-annex assistant

And it was done rather abruptly. Did they get a national security letter forcing them to disclose user content on-demand which they refused to be a party to?
