Follow-Up to Ignore pattern with special chars not working, v1.1.1-windows-amd64
Hi,
I’m currently experiencing the same problem again. To catch up with the old thread, I now know that it hasn’t to do anything with special characters in ignores (like we concluded together at that time). So I think the thesis of calmh I’ve linked above might be true. Let me describe what happened now since I made everything fresh at the time of the old thread.
My machines net01, net02 are running on Syncthing v1.2.1 (win-amd64). The setup is: A (sendonly) > B (recvonly) I’m syncing drive F: with ignores. The ignores are (manually) set the same on both sides.
Two files of a text editor storing recent file paths went out of sync now because I worked with PSPad (editor) on B. They are plain .INI text files. A showed them out of sync, B showed to revert them. As I expect this to happen regularly and often, I chose to put a new line to the .stignore on both computers:
.stignore:
(?i)/Prgs2/PSPad/PSPad.INI
(?i)/Prgs2/PSPad/PSPad_MU.INI
Both sides automatically triggered a rescan by itself and came up with:
A:
B:
I cannot get this out of sync state away - it seems to be the same issue like in the topic linked above. Tried then to restart both syncthing instances, hit rescan manually - no change in the situation. I expect A and B to be in sync as the only difference is ignored.
I can also reproduce this creating a fresh folder with the same setting on the PSPad sub directory and then make my change to the INI on B and creating the ignore patterns for the file on A+B.
Any more info you might need to investigate or fix this?
Kind regards, Catfriend1
