Hello,
Thanks @Zenji for making such a reliable program.
I recently made a donation edition purchase.
I had a 2 questions:
1. Does Free File Sync work well with Git Files? (.git folder)
Can it preserve / detect changes that occur inside .git folders in a 1 way sync only copying whats changed?
Currently I have a Free File Sync batch script that does a one way sync between two directories on a single drive. It runs every 10 minutes. It only copies files that have changed. Works perfectly.
I would like to add my code projects as well, which contain .git folder. There have been some issues with cloud sync providers, so I just want to make sure.
Does Free File Sync handle these folders well?
If anyone has a similar setup please chime in.
2a. I am the admin of this system. Currently my FFS Batch script follows symbolic links and everything seems to work fine I think....
How can I verify FreeFileSync was run with Admin rights in the logs or global xml?
Symbolic links are being followed.
I need to be sure copying locked files works. I know symbolic links are working I'm guessing it's fine?
I just want to make sure, should I enable “Run with the highest privileges” on the Windows Task Scheduler Configuration?
I see in the FAQ that it creates issues with network share, which I do not have.
My concern is about locked files, I'm not sure how to verify/test that..?
Also:
2b. Does the icon ‘FreeFileSync_x64.exe’ in ‘C:\Program Files’ need to be set to “Run as Administrator” as well?
Thanks!
Does Free File Sync Handle .git folder/ Git Files Appropriately?
