Copy only mode

Hello everyone,

I have a question. Is there a way to do this.

  • 2 folders : A and B
  • We copy new files from A to B
  • We ignore anything that happens in B

The goal is to add new files from A and ignoring entirely what’s happening in B all together.

I am trying to see for my problem if I can use a temporary transient folder in the middle.

Thanks for your help

Send only on A

Receive only on B

Hello Terry,

While this kind of works, modifying the folder content in B triggers a “local changes” status from Syncthing up to “Out of sync” when too many changes appear.

Can the exclusion file setting help?

turn off the watcher and rescan interval on B. Out of sync will also indicate that B does not have all of A files

I’m not convinced that Syncthing is right for your use case, @Powsey .
