I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see delta sync within the desktop apps. I use the sync clients like crazy between multiple machines and certain files do not sync when changed.
Specifically a keepass file etc. Similar to Dropbox, would love to see the client able to sync at the delta level
delta sync wouldn’t change anything for keepass file I think.
I use Keepass (keepass.info) and have no trouble syncing it with ownCloud ; what kind of problem do you have with yours ?
Delta sync is most useful when you sync container files (trueCrypt, virtual disk files and so on) for instance.
Well, for this use case (encrypted containers/files), instead of addressing it with delta sync I’m currently working on client-side encryption : https://github.com/owncloud/client/issues/4327
This way you can sync your sensitive files without disclosing them to the server, so syncing the container is no longer necessary.
Does it make sense to open again all feature requests that were already present in owncloud? Can’t they just be copied to the new repo? Most of them will be valid for nextcloud as well.
Copying issues isn’t possible …I don’t know which procedure is planned about all the enhancements @LukasReschke … I can say that we are currently accepting enhancements on GitHub
Yes … But i don’t think that we do the same work twice … Maybe we will just merge the pulls of ownCloud in Nextcloud too (as long as they meet our targets - which might be different. Think this will be clarified in the coming weeks … It can be that the both projects will go such different ways that they stay not compatible to each other (asked here: https://help.nextcloud.com/t/owncloud-an-nextcloud-compability/) … Many questions … Answers coming in the next weeks (…and maybe at the BBQ this week )
