If you move something on the device, and then do a pull you'll end up with two copies of the moved file, which on a push would result in the original being put back.

This could be fixed by adding an appropriate --delete option to the rsync command; however is tricky to get back.

However, if you mean can you move items around in /etc/others-menu and put that back, yes - with care.

Getting synchronisation right is hard: a minimum of two powerful computers with changes possible on either one with changes being kept in sync.

Arguably one solution would be to keep stuff you've changed in Subversion and then merge the changes back onto a reflashed image.

Cheers,
