7bit Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 the ignore file by default already contains some of these meta files and folders that various operating systems and file browsers create in each directory and I would like to request the file name.directoryto be added to this list by default. This file is created in KDE by the Dolphin file manager (the default file manager of KDE 4) and contains such settings as whether to show hidden files in this direcrtory, whether to show the files as list or as icons or thumbnails, etc. This file should not be synchronized across different computers because on every computer the user might want to have different preferences for viewing the folder in Dolphin.

GreatMarko Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 I would suspect this is unlikely to be included as standard as a "default" rule in generated .SyncIgnore files, given that it is quite a specific use case, rather than a general rule that would relevant to a vast number of Sync users.

7bit Posted February 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 The vast number (I would guess 100%) of the Linux version of btsync is installed on a Linux box, so its not a "special use case" for these, its the norm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
