Summary of the issue you are facing:
I see the instructions here, and in the documentation, changing sync interval. I have set remotePollInterval to be pretty high, but this doesn’t solve my problem.
My problem is that when I use a program that saves continuously (i.e. Obsidian), Nextcloud it constantly sending tiny revisions up to the server. Basically it’s sending a revision with every keystroke.
For now, I have disabled syncing entirely for the folder that contains all my notes. Is there a way to limit how often Nextcloud polls local files? At least for this folder, I can’t have it trigger on every save.
If this isn’t possible, my follow up question is whether I can resume sync and pause sync on a folder, from the command line. If so, I’ll just create a cron job to resume and then pause the folder every 10 minutes or so.
Thanks for your help. I didn’t fill out the rest of the logs and what not because this isn’t really a server issue.
