Is Dropbox a valid quick-and-dirty source control solution?

dropbox, version-control

Solution

Not really, but Dropbox in concert with GIT, maybe. For a single developer scenario where you want to work on more than one development machine, I think this would work just fine.

Problem

I see many CS students who use Dropbox as an alternative to real SC systems due to its ease of use. Do you use Dropbox as a quick-and-dirty source control solution? Is this a valid use for it?
