Versie 1.5.0 van Syncthing is uitgekomen. Syncthing is een opensourceprogramma waarmee bestanden tussen twee computers kunnen worden gesynchroniseerd. Dit gebeurt net als bij BitTorrent Sync zonder dat er een centrale server tussen zit, zoals dat wel het geval is bij opslagdiensten als bijvoorbeeld Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive en iCloud. De software is onder meer beschikbaar voor Windows, Linux, macOS en Android. Ook zijn er packages voor Synology en Qnap. In deze uitgave zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen aangebracht:
Release version 1.5.0This release changes the default location for the index database under some circumstances. Two new flags can also be used to affect the location of the configuration (
-config
) and database (-data
) separately. The old-home
flag is equivalent to setting both of these to the same directory. When no flags are given the following logic is used to determine the data location:
- If a database exists in the old default location, that location is
still used. This means existing installations are not affected by this
change.- If
$XDG_DATA_HOME
is set, use$XDG_DATA_HOME/syncthing
.- If
~/.local/share/syncthing
exists, use that location.- Use the old default location.
This logic is used on non-Windows, non-Mac platforms only. On Windows and Mac the logic is unchanged.
