Abstract

A method can include determining metadata for a file responsive to initiating an operation on the file stored within a client system and determining a storage location within a file repository of a master version of the file from the metadata. The method also can include determining, from the storage location, whether the master version of the file is more recent than the file stored within the client system using a processor of the client system.
