It allows two +replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different +hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then +brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other. + +Unlike simple mirroring or backup utilities, Unison can deal with updates to +both replicas of a distributed directory structure. Updates that do not +conflict are propagated automatically.
