add file syncing with Google Drive or Dropbox
Having files sync automatically with cloud storage would be great for me so that I can use Matlab on a desktop at work and continue on the same file later from a laptop at home.

how to run up the code using octave

This would be great, especially for people who aren't familiar with collaborative programming. A lot of science degrees require learning MATLAB/Octave, but don't teach any version control software. Many experienced software engineers have issues fully understanding git's paradigm, so a student just trying to make a chart or learn loops might find it daunting.

Git is already available as a syncing option with Octave Online. If you clone the Git repository associated with your account, you can see a full revision history of your files.
For more details, click the "Git Sync" button in the files toolbar.

I find the idea of code collaboration on a platform with no form of version control kinda scary. Sync to a platform with version control, like Google Docs, or Git would set my mind at ease.
