As an addition to my earlier post I noticed that the only versions that are made are on other machines that are on. This is of course completely in line with the way BTsync works but strange for people who rely on it for two reasons:
People wanting on versions on the machine where the file is changed have to search all other machines for old versions as they do not have the same versions depending on whether they were on or off.
People wanting a version on there machine because someone might have changed it on another machine get a number of changed versions depending on whether the machine was on or off.
N.B. I'm talking especially about a file getting changed twice while your machine is off. Turning it on gives it only the second change.
I think it would be more clear to most users when the .SynArchive is also synced. Then all versions are available for everyone.
I'd like to +1 this as well. BTSync corrupted my homework file, and I couldn't restore a previous version because I was not at home to grab the old version from my desktop, so I had to start over. All changes need to be stored locally.
