syncat [WIP]

Files should never have been synced by OneDrive, Qsync, iCloud automatically ...

-- one almost lost all his files once after a sync

Introduction

A server-client tool with a centralized server hosting the files, and clients syncing files cross platforms.

Features

• Sync files between server and multiple clients
• Files on server can be modified in place, because it is intended to be deployed on NAS
• Auto conflict detection. Conflict will be notified to the client and then notify the user to resolve manually
• Custom network protocol based on TCP
• GUI for clients (mainly used for resolving conflicts)
• Special support for NTFS, use win32api to listen to file changes instead of polling
