upload only changes #839

Open sevenleo opened 3 years ago

sevenleo commented 3 years ago

My system has a lot of files (8,967). It is hosted on ftp and not on git. I usually use the UploadOnSave function to synchronize changes with ftp

However I would like to test some changes locally and did not want them to go live without all the tests having been done.

So, I turn off UploadOnSave I make changes and tests then I upload everything that has been changed.

But I need to remember the changed files or upload all the files, which takes a long time.

I suggest uploading only changed files. For that, sftp would need to keep track of files changed since the last upload / sync It's possible ? It already exists and I haven't found it?

Yeah, sometimes changing even one file, triggers an full upload of the folder... I have an media folder, adding just an image requires the re-uploading of the entire folder Consuming bandwidth and time 🤦 This while using the watcher obviusly { "watcher": { "files": "**/*", "autoUpload": true, "autoDelete": true } }
