Bug description
File .sync-exclude.lst
is ignored on initial sync, it resides in the root user directory on Nextcloud server
Steps to reproduce
- When I bind my desktop client to the server account, I presented with the dialog:
- Synchronise everything from server
- Choose what to sync
- When I choose
Synchronise everything from server
the Initial sync synchronises literally everything, even files listed in.sync-exclude.lst
in the root folder. It Is synced and then lit yellow:
BACKUP
folder is excluded here, but synced anyway. This folder could be very big. I have to delete it and then it is not synced. But this initial sync looks like a bug to me.
- If I choose
Choose what to sync
, then it seems.sync-exclude.lst
is ignored completely, and the folderBACKUP
is displayed in the settings where you pick folders to sync.
Expected behavior
The excluded items (such as BACKUP
folder in the example) should not be synced during initial sync.
