FullSync Manual - Synchronization Types


      You can synchronize two locations using one of the following supported types::

      Publish/Update
      This is used to update a website from a local copy to a remote server. It will apply changes to the destination but not the other way around. If a file changed in the destination a warning will be generated so it is not overwritten without your knowledge. Additional files in the destination will be ignored, deleted files in source will also be deleted on the destination. Short: FullSync creates an exact copy of the source and keeps track of what it uploaded so additional files (like generated data or config files) in destination are not affected.

      Backup Copy
      Copies all changes in the source to destination but does not delete anything in destination.

      Exact Copy
      Copies all changes in the source to destination including deletions.

      Two-Way Synchronization
      Compares two locations and copies newer files to the other side.
      BEWARE: it does not recognize changes on both sides! in this case, the older file is overwritten and changes to it are lost!
