Sync a Contract Repo

Passing a .contract file back-and-forth is simple and easy. But when you have more than two parties, you likely need a better way to all stay in sync.

To make syncing easy, any .contract can be hosted as a data repository that others can push to or pull from. Just like git, you can self-host a contract as a repo on any server using sshd. Alternatively, hosting services like ContractNexus make it easy to create and share your repos via the web.

In this tutorial, we’ll explore the basic operations for cloning, pushing, and pulling a remote data repository.
