Hi,
I am using Syncthing 1.29.5 (from Debian Trixi repository). Is it possible to have a “high level” log of a share? In the web interface there is already the “last change” for a share, but it only contains the “last” event. I found that I can activate the “scanner” logging but it is too verbose and technical for my needs. What I would like is information like:
```plaintext
[date and time] new file "dir/some_file.txt" copied from "computer1" to "computer2"
[date and time] file "dir/another_file.txt" removed on "computer1" and thus on "computer2"
[date and time] file "dir/yet_another_file.txt" modified on "computer1", new version was copied to "computer2"
```
Maybe it already exists but I did not find it?
Regards, Yvan

Maybe the audit long can be helpful here? See

This is probably the closest thing that’s available right now.

Thanks for the tip @acolomb. I will try that on next sync.
