This would be a really cool feature. I too have a couple of shares with a custom ignore list. It is really a pain to manually copy them over all the nodes.

I second @iswrong . I don't think btsync should be thinking about local encryption of files. In windows you've got bitlocker und on each individual other platform you've got something equivalent.

I would love to see this feature in the next version of btsync! Make it like you have in the standard bittorrent client. It would be a great start and you've already got the code for it.

Really good post indeed! I too think that using service accounts as a default would make this feature really complete.

"Destination folder is not empty. Add anyway?" simply alerts you to the fact that the folder you're adding already contains some content (which could be overwritten when the folder syncs with other devices) - you can however still add the non-empty folder to Sync!
Well, the thing is, if I add a standard folder it doesn't ask me that confirmation. It only asks when I add an encrypted folder. It's more about UI consistency. Actually, the thing that bothers me the most about that warning is the word "destination". I'm choosing a *source* not a destination. This leads to questions that @PaulU correctly deducted.
The next thing that I find strange is that if I already have a standard folder (that is currently syncing on multiple machines), then it should be possible to add an encrypted target to that mesh. Currently I can only see the RO and RW keys. It would be really great if you could add a feature that "converts" a standard RW/RO keyset into a RW/RO/E keyset.

Hi,
I'm trying out the encrypted folder feature, which sound really great! There is just one thing that is troublesome. When adding an encrypted folder I first select the down arrow beside the "Add Folder" and select "Encrypted folder". I naturally select a folder that I want to back up encrypted on an unsecure server. After having selected the folder, I am prompted with a confirmation "Destination folder is not empty. Add anyway?". What exactly should this mean? Am I only supposed to select an empty folder?! I thought the idea was to be able to sync an existing folder to another destination but encrypted. Did I get something wrong?
Thanks for any reasoning
Loris

I'm not sure if you read the above comments. Could you share some light on this topic?
