Comment on Basic file sharing but with the ability to sync with other users.
IanTwenty@piefed.social 1 week agoKeepass (some clients anyway) helpfully merges changes to the underlying file if it changes whilst open so a simple sync of the file is enough.

Do you have a how-to on this? I haven’t found keepass to be all that reliable when merging changes, and I’ve lost a few passwords because of it.
Syncthing forks a file at each client access, so I’m not sure how keepass would accomplish this, although it’s been a few years, things might have changed.

I cannot find confirmation for keepassxc but they check for changes before saving (and I believe offer to merge) as confirmed in this non-issue:

You could still get conflict files being created by the sync software and would need to watch and merge those manually. However you can mitigate that by saving on every change (this is the default I think) and synching as often as possible between devices.

Agreed. That’s what I’m doing now.
