I need a way to filter out comparisons for Mac app contents, i e everything under .app/ in an macOS app folder hierarchy, yet that copies the whole app folder if that is missing or has a later date fully replacing the app at destination. No updating of internal files inside apps ever.
The logic would be something like:
IF folder name ends with "*.app" ignore contents AND IF folder name ending with "*.app is not at destination OR folder name ending with "*.app has later date than destination Add folder and all its content to copy list.
The end result would be that apps fulfilling the criteria would be copied in full. How can you filter like this while copying the app subfolders without issues?
Background here is that Mac apps has a folder structure under AppName.app, which macOS treats as files rather than an ordinary folder.
