I have two computers that I use for making music. They each have a folder with the same title that contains VST plugins. The problem is that the contents of each one are a bit different. For example, one device has some plugins that the other doesn’t have, and vice versa.
I have the two devices connected with Syncthing and want to merge the two folders and begin syncing them, but without losing the contents of either one.
If the two directories contains a file with the same name but different content, Syncthing will rename one of them to indicate conflict. Both files will be available on both computers and you need to find out yourself how to resolve the conflict. Delete, rename and edit as you please until you are satisfied.
To be 100% clear this will copy the plugins that are missing on each machine from the other machine and the two plugin directories will then match and stay in sync going forward.
Just to make sure I get it right the first time: After I accept the request from the first computer, how do I point Syncthing to the corresponding directory on the second computer?
