lkjnhbgv Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 hello. i'm using btsync on android and linux (GUI). automatic two-way sync folders work perfectly.i struggle however with the backup of my titanium backup and photo folder. i want the data to be synced to the laptop and kept there, even when i delete the files on android.i created backup folders from android.it should either be sync and then delete on android, or keep and let me delete when i decide to. currently it moves the deleted files on android to ./SyncArchive on linux, which is absolutely not what i want. another question regardin the ./SyncArchive, the files there expire after a while, right?what if i disable the versioning, then the files on linux would just be deleted, to the trash or from the "disk"? i quite like btsync, even though it's closed source, there simply is no alternative for this usecase atm. thanks for any advice.

suhrim Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 instead of deleting the files on your phone can't you just move them from the sync folder on your computer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lkjnhbgv Posted June 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 that's definitely an option, but i'd prefer an automagic solution where i don't have to do anything manually.automation is just so nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RomanZ Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 @lkjnhbgv You can adjust your "sync_trash_ttl" setting on the PC. By default it orders BTSync to delete files after 30 days being in SyncArchive. If you set it to "0" they will be never deleted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
