If you can limit yourself to modifying files on only one computer before
a "sync", I recommend using Git pull/push operations for your key rings,
trust-DB etc.
I have been using this method for a long time to sync macOS and Linux,
and it works fine for me. The PGP files are binary and therefore opaque,
but apparently platform-independent.
