I'm sorry, but I'm starting to lose a lot of faith in unison. You assume its working because it seems to -- then you go compare time/ date/size stamps...
I am syncing the "/data" folder between two machines. Therefore, my default.prf begins with "root = /data". I want to ignore the directory "/data/tmp". My...
Hi, I'm using Unison 2.27.57 on Windows When I keep a preference file named "common" in my .unison directory, the following command works fine: include common ...
... It will only ignore /data/tmp - it is simple to try & test. The "Path" is anchored too. "Name" keyword however means filename math with any path. ... ...

Every Fall and Spring, my huge file archives go into turmoil as multiple UnisonPRFs struggle to deal with idiotic Daylight Saving Time (DST). Is there a...
... It has been a while since I looked at it, but I recall that it ignores differences of exactly +/- 1 and +/- 2 hours. The current released version is...
... Moving between NTFS and FAT will change the file timestamps (by 1 or 2 seconds here and there if I recall correctly). So if the timestamps change, it has...
... Could you describe more precisely your problem? Are you synchronizing modification times? I remember I fixed some bugs related to daylight saving time...
Hi, I'm using unison-2.27.57 (under Linux) to synchronise files for quite a while now without any problems. Now I want to use it again for another system,...
... To be precise, it's not that Unison does not understand the encoding, it's just that it does nothing about it. So if two file systems use different...
Im new to unison. Im trying to test it out between two windows computers on the same network. When I start the windows version i get the error that I have seem...
First of all, Alan, thank you for your comprehensive answer. ... I just played around a little bit again and did some research and testing, and it seems you...
Folks, I prefer to let old files look old. It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling to do "ls -l" and see that, yes indeed, I still have some old files from 1992 that...

Things get even more freaky. As an experiment I kept re-running a profile over and over every few seconds (that profile had nothing to propagate because it...
When running under Win32 I found that times=true causes 99% of the PROPS differences. (so try using times=false directive) Along the same lines as JO's...

Hello everyone. I have asynchronous DSL at home, about 50kbyte/s upload and 350kbyte/s download. Now I have this large file and want to sync with my computer...
