I’m glad to announce v0.3.0 release!

The major feature of the new release is the implementation of complete file synchronization, i.e., the ability to send and receive files. To identify local changes, a periodical folder full scan is performed.

You can download ready-to-use binaries for Linux and Windows as well as the source code.

Syncspirit is a syncthing-compatible synchronization program that implements BEP-protocol. Syncspirit is a syncthing-compatible is written from the scratch software, which had different technical decisions on its foundation to overcome syncthing limitations. Syncspirit is available for Windows and Linux. Currently, Syncspirit is targeted at power users and early adopters who feel comfortable with command lines.

Any feedback is welcome!

WBR, basiliscos.

That tools does what I always think was possible to do, or am I missing something?

I think the problem is that they do not share the whole communication protocol/model with GUI/client and it has only feature to block something aposteriory masks, while the whole folder with all files is already shared with client's device. The original syncthing database scheme also seems does not supporting this.

Technically, from a protocol view level, there is no problem just to ask a single file to download and share only it.
