one more suggestion: when using rootalias A -> B, A must be spelled correctly. But A is transformed sometimes and I found it hard to see how (symbolic links ...

Is there a way to make unison colorize the output when requesting diff between two files? E.g., like colordiff would do. If unison uses a specific command to...
I've gone round and round and I cannot seem to figure out how to help unison handle spaces in a path. It does not seem to accept "escapes" - "\ " at all. I'd...

... Yep. It's a MinGW Ocaml, so it doesn't understand Cygwin paths. That's not a problem for me, because when I run my script, it passes only relative paths to...
Here are the scripts I use to build unison in the Cygwin environment (targeted for mingw or cygwin). There's an option for MSVC, but I haven't tested it in...
I've been investigating unison for synchronising a couple of servers and just noticed this little idiosyncracy with it. for local path to local path unison...
