The original question was whether BBEdit can *sync* like Dreamweaver - the answer, AFAIS, only describes the *upload* (deploy) function which is not quite sync'ing. I do not believe that BBEdit can do a true sync, not even one-way. In my experience the Deploy Site function deploys the *complete* site, even if the server-side files have the same or newer timestamp than the local file.

Site deployment in BBEdit decides which files to upload based on the SHA-1 hash of each *local* file's contents. If this has changed, then the file is uploaded. Time stamps are not dependable and are not used, nor is the server consulted.

And talking about Deploy Site … What is the difference between "Deploy Site …" and "Re-deploy entire site…"? The latter is not mentioned in the 13.0 manual. And contrary to my expectation because of the ellipse, "Deploy Site" does not open an intermediate dialog. Maybe I am missing something.

Copying from the 13.0 change notes at 
<https://www.barebones.com/support/bbedit/notes-13.0.html>:

    "Re-Deploy Entire Site" is now available on the Markup -> Update
    menu, as well as in the action bar popup for web site projects.
    After confirmation, this will re-process and re-deploy all files
    in the site.

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me.
