Yes, it sounds like it would. That is not something I would use for source code management, but it would fit this, and some other use-cases I have, quite nicely.

I tend to use Git not only for source code management, but also for document synchronisation across machines which may, or may not, be connected to a network at any given time. Git is very nice for that sort of work.
