Synchronize It! 3.5 RC

Posted in Synchronize It! at 10:22 pm by Igor Green

I have found quite a critical bug, which could random affect anyone using Projects feature. So I have decided to make a release with what we have ready to this time:
- Win7 compatibility issues fixed;
- FTP can transfer specific files in Text mode;
- general exclude list;
- limit depth of subfolders searched;
- experimental “Detect possible conflicts” feature.
This is almost ready 3.5 release, so let’s call it RC :)

I’d like to take few words about “Detect possible conflicts”. This one is really quite simple, but the idea only comes to me few days ago. I think it will be useful if you often sync same locations. In this case usually you only transfer files, which you have modified since last sync. And it would be reasonable to suggest, that if target folder has a modified file within same date range, then it’s probably a conflict. Synchronize It! can detect this if History files are used, but without history it was unable to detect this. Now with new option Synchronize It! will check what is the oldest time of listed newer source files, and warn you if it’s going to overwrite any target file newer then that time. I’m playing with this simple feature for few days, and I really like it. It becomes unusable for large first-time sync though, so I will either have to disable it automatically for this case, or add an option to quickly disable highlighting. I will appreciate any feedback on this feature. Thank you!
