docs & docs_original & watch folders: ideas for reducing 3X duplication? #408

Closed SimonDedman closed 1 year ago

Ger, hello mate, hope you're well.

I finally installed Windows 10 in a VM to avoid having to dual boot from Linux, and am now setting Qiqqa up on that, with the hope/expectation that it should work better having the Qiqqa library be on a mapped network drive instead of trying to sync to a network share that seemed to never work properly.

In doing so, I noticed that Qiqqa/docs and Qiqqa/docs_original appear to be the same, in my case 2281 files, 5.5gb. And matching (somewhat) the 2474 files, 5.8gb watch folder, for a total of ~11gb wasted. Do you know if there's an option to not have one of docs/docs_original?

Cheers!

Sorry, looks like this is only for exported libraries. Closing.
