If anyone is looking for projects/uses for raspberry pis, they are great for DIY home monitoring:
It's a bit of a duct-taped solution at the moment but it's been working flawlessly to monitor a property without wifi, I hope to clean it up into something I can present to the world eventually.
I’ll definitely read your write up if you get the chance to work on it!
After you buy rPi, camera, IR light, case, power supply it will cost same or more

I run mine on the linode hosting my blog. The web interface is generated by stagit.
you can simply self-host git in any ssh server as long as you don't need to share access.
in the remote server just "git --bare init" a directory, in your local computer "git remote add myorigin ssh://server/path/to/dir" and start pushing.
you could also do the same thing for a dropbox directory adding a file:// remote.
git is just some files lying around, no weird binary formats or servers needed, it's brilliant
For example works great on networked file share with no proper git server required.
