The ABSync application was designed to synchronize two directories. It's mainly used to synchronize files between a stationary computer and a laptop or an external harddisk drive. A special feature is that it saves the current state to files. Therefore it can detect exactly which files were changed since the last sync. Whereas other directory sync tools only compare the current state of two directories, ABSync compares the current state at each directory with the old state and performs the same changes at the other directory. Creating a Set with the Wizard: When starting ABSync the first time or after pressing the Wizard button in the Set Editor, the Wizard starts, which guides you through the process of defining a new Set. A Set contains the path of the directories you want to sync and some options. First Sync: After defining a Set, you can start the first Sync. If one of the directories is empty, ABSync will copy all files from the directory which contains files to the one which doesn't. If both directories contain files, make sure they contain exactly the same files (differences are logged in case they are detected). If both directories contain the same files after this first run, ABSync writes state files to the directories, which are a snapshot of all files you have in the directories. Further Usage: After state files are created, you can create, change and delete files and directories at one of your directories. When starting ABSync afterwards, it will find the differences and perform the same changes at the other directory. Abort Sync Process: It is possible to interrupt a sync process. After clicking on the Sync button while the sync process is running, you are asked if you want to abort. Abortion is possible after a complete file is copied. In case you abort a sync, no state files are saved. When you sync again, the sync can be resumed by only copying the remaining files.
