There are many different version control options for Syncthing, depending on what versioning scheme and how much storage will be set aside for it. Syncthing Autostartįor a desktop, add to Startup Applications /usr/bin/syncthing -no-browser -home="/home/user/.config/syncthing"įor a server, create a service, or something like that. For example, a large repository can be synchronized between two larger-capacity devices (e.g, Debian server and Debian workstation), but also allow access via SFTP for smaller-capacity devices (ChromeOS/Android). Synchronization is useful, but is not a replacement for SFTP which should be seen as on-demand push/pull.

#Syncthing docker package manual#
It is important to have a manual workflow as well (or semi-automated) so that things are easier to manage. That server folder can have SFTP for remote access and also provide two-way synchronization back to the desktop for things such as editing images that are on a web server. On desktop, move images to a second folder (removing them from mobile via synchronization), and then have the second folder synchronized to a server. Workflow: sync mobile folder to desktop.Should be synchronized but also allow for repository of more images on a backup location.Images/Photos folder on a mobile device.The best approach is to partition into folders so that different folders contain different content that will be sychronized differently. Other files one will want only in one or two locations (large files/repositories). Some files one will want to keep everywhere, with version control.

One-way synchronization, two-way sinchronization, master and slave device replication, etc. The main thing is to think out one's synchronization policies and plans.

Syncthing versioning doesn't really work as expected by the name, so that is really backup-very-lite.
