  1. So I have ".git" in my .SyncIgnore on all my machines, and have had it this way for quite some time, but I've noticed that over time the machines will come 'off sync' and eventually get some files that don't sync (although normal files continue to sync fine). Logs on all machines have entries similar to:


    [20130718 23:40:15.126] State sync finished for folder /home/bana/GSP
    [20130718 23:40:15.222] LoadTorrent: requesting to load file research/samc/class-paper/.git/refs/heads/master which is modified on disk (cur:1376584154 stored:1376583655) - rejecting until file info is updated

    I realize I could delete the entry in btsync, re-add and this would go away for a while, but then it would probably come back (as it has in the past). Anyone have ideas for a permanent fix? I can generate the full scale logs for what I see right now, but catching it 'in the wild' upon first appearance might be harder.

    *Edit* I forgot to mention that these are all Linux x64 with btsync 1.1.48.

  2. I noticed when rebuilding my sync index on upgrading to 1.1.26, that indexing will often force my hard drive into seeking I/O modes (I can hear the disk head thrashing, 13MB/s read speeds, and mostly IOWAIT CPU states), and then randomly switch to sequential reading (silent disk, 80+MB/s read speeds, and less IOWAIT).

    You can see the behavior in the attached resource graph (blue is CPU, dark blue is IOWAIT, and orange is HD read):

    It seems like this would be relatively easy thing to fix?

  3. @kos13: It turns out that /home/jason/syncapp/GSP/papers/12-fall/bma-related is actually a broken symlink to a non existent folder. So in that sense it does not have permission to write.

    Also, the (broken) symlink itself is fully owned by the user that SyncApp is being run under.

    And I think it is the case that the symlink is broken on one client, but still functioning for the other (as it points to somewhere outside of the SyncApp controlled folders).

  4. I couldn't find a bug tracker and I didn't find anything in a forum search, so I thought I'd put my problem here:

    When trying to sync two clients on a local network, it gets stuck in an apparent busy loop where the SyncApp client is using maximum bandwidth and growing the logs with repetitive entries of:

    Which blew up to 190MB after a few minutes.

    I tried searching for files ending in !sync, but couldn't find any of the files mentioned in the logs (just one other file that seemingly was not mentioned).

    Any ideas?
