.sp
Syncthing uses a single directory to store configuration, crypto keys
and index caches. The location defaults to \fB$HOME/.config/syncthing\fP

are those that will be sharing the folder in question. Each mentioned
device must have a separate \fBdevice\fP element later in the file. It is
customary that the local device ID is included in all repositories.

One or more \fBdevice\fP elements must be present in the file. Each element
describes a device participating in the cluster. It is customary to include a
\fBdevice\fP element for the local device; Syncthing will currently add one if
it is not present. The following attributes may be set on the \fBdevice\fP

2015-05-30 11:05:37 +00:00

text files.
.TP
.B never
Disable all compression.

.SH SYNCING CONFIGURATION FILES
.sp
Syncing configuration files between devices (such that multiple devices are
using the same configuration files) can cause issues. This is easy to do
accidentally if you sync your home folder between devices. A common symptom
of syncing configuration files is two devices ending up with the same Device ID.
.sp
2016-01-24 07:08:08 +00:00
If you want to use Syncthing to backup your configuration files, it is recommended
2015-11-09 13:00:10 +00:00
that the files you are backing up are in a folder\-master to prevent other
devices from overwriting the per device configuration. The folder on the remote
device(s) should not be used as configuration for the remote devices.
.sp
If you\(aqd like to sync your home folder in non\-master mode, you may add the
folder that stores the configuration files to the ignore list\&.
If you\(aqd also like to backup your configuration files, add another folder in
master mode for just the configuration folder.
