A method, system and program product manage files to be offloaded by multiple users into a common storage repository. A request is received from a user to offload a file from a computer. A determination is made whether the file is currently stored in the common storage repository. If the file is not currently stored in the common storage repository, the file is offloaded to the common storage repository. If the file is currently stored in the common storage repository, a link is established for the user to the file in the common storage repository. If the requested file is in-transit, the link is established when the transfer is complete.
