As far as I know, there is no provision in pidgin for synchronizing.
Everything (configuration files, conversation logs, etc) is kept as local resources, usually files (although there is a plugin that allows storing conversation history in a DB).

I currently use a low-tech approach consisting of DIFFing the relevant folders and manually resolving differences.
