The Ev2 receiver only ever has to handle incomplete directories that are empty and never has to handle incomplete directories with children. This may simplify the implementation. For example it may make it simpler and/or more efficient to update following an interrupted update. -- Philip Martin | Subversion Committer WANdisco // *Non-Stop Data*
