Summary
Users who migrated from GistBox and have authenticated via GitHub will have their snippets sync automatically to Gist on updates (create, edit and delete). For guidance on how Gist sync works in general, see this article.
What does sync do?
For new snippets: Cacher will try to create a Gist with the description and file fields filled in. Note that snippet titles are specific to Cacher and will not be updated in the Gist.
For snippet updates: Cacher will update the corresponding Gist with those changes.
For deleted snippets: Cacher will delete the corresponding Gist.
