Question about log entry "Ready to synchronize ..."

General
1

Hello,

during startup of Syncthing 14.25 (and probably earlier) the log has entries like this on the Unix machine:

[XFBAH] 18:25:04 INFO: Ready to synchronize Documents (readwrite) [XFBAH] 18:25:05 INFO: Ready to synchronize Scripts (readwrite) [XFBAH] 18:25:06 INFO: Ready to synchronize “Sounds” (Sounds) (readwrite)

and something like this on the Windows machine:

[DJ3IB] 17:59:05 INFO: Ready to synchronize Documents (readwrite) [DJ3IB] 17:59:54 INFO: Ready to synchronize Scripts (readwrite) [DJ3IB] 17:59:54 INFO: Ready to synchronize Sounds (readwrite)

Seems identical except for the “Sounds” directory. I assume this is due to the fact that there is a display name and a directory name. But why would the other entries on the Unix machine look different? And why does the Windows machine does not show this type of entry? Shouldn’t they all look something like:

INFO: Ready to synchronize “Documents” (Documents) (readwrite) INFO: Ready to synchronize “Scripts” (Scripts) (readwrite) INFO: Ready to synchronize “Sounds” (Sounds) (readwrite)

It shows "Label" (ID) unless there is no label in which case it shows just the ID.

Ah. Thank you. So “Scripts (readwrite)” means there is no label for this directory? Could that be a result of a configuration done before labels were introduced?

Most likely, yes.
