Selecting "no" during sync setup gives an error.

[aerique]

jotta-cli release (jotta-cli version): 0.12.52975 (unstable)

Description of problem:

When setting up sync with jotta-cli sync setup --root /path/to/where/sync/shouldbe at one point the question about selective sync comes up and selecting n gives an error:

The existing sync folder on jottacloud.com contains 22 folders
jotta-cli can selectively ignore one or more of these folders if you do not wish to sync the data to this device
Do you want to setup selective sync? (y/n): n
ERROR  nothing selected

I had to start setup again, select y and then select no folders to ignore.

Expected:

Selecting n should work.

jotta-cli status (jotta-cli status):

Well, it works now, so:

Additional info:

I'm making a jotta-cli package for Guix, which is a kinda "special" Linux distribution, so this could all be my fault.

Hi aerique, that shouldn't happen for sure! Thanks for the report, we'll get that fixed for the next release.

[coopersimon]

This is fixed in the newest release.

Also - we have released sync on the stable branch now.
