Hey Anthony, I have used apt-cacher-ng, but it can't save git repos or npm repos. Also i have used apt-cacher-ng, it used to work great until 12.02 but when we had started to have mixed setup [ ubuntu 13,14.04 and others ] we got issues within our setup and one point issues became so daily we decided to scrap apt-cacher-ng.
