Detection of moved files #14

Open HaleTom opened 5 years ago

Can csync2 detect if I have moved files or a directory structure?

I want to be able to move files locally without them being deleted then recreated remotely.

I'd like any locally moved files to be moved remotely also.

That is not implemented. Heuristics to do that could possibly be added, using the signatures, base names or other recorded meta data. Any volunteers?

If it is a "one-off" action (you don't regularly move stuff around, but need to do so now, or occasionally), you could just move them manually, on all sides, and "re-init".
