Can't find .unison directory on Mac OSX Sierra

Question

I installed Unison via MacPorts on Mac OSX Sierra. I've read some tutorials online, and now want to write my own profile to set up the synchronization. Sadly, I can't find the .unison folder where the profiles are stored in.

Answer 1

I'm fairly certain that you have to make your own .unison directory and profiles. The .unison directory should be in the home directory, so mkdir ~/.unison. Otherwise, the default path of the directory is stored in the UNISON environment variable. See this entry in the Unison manual for more info. And then see the Unison tag wiki page for some sample profiles.

Answer 2

Profiles and archive files are stored in folder ~/Library/Application Support/Unison.
