Hi, ok, use cases. I brought with me a project folder from work and want to sync it with the local folder. Maybe I moved some files, some I deleted, many are changed. So I have to delete files on the left. Maybe there are some temp files that I brought with me, that I can safely delete on the right side OR left side. Now I'm working at home and in the evening, I want to sync the local folder with the project folder on my external. Again, there are sure temp files for deletion left, and changed files on the right, plus old file versions on the right, which I want to delete.
I don't need an algorithm to decide what to delete. Additionally, it's seldom to delete source and destination at the same time. But when syncing a project folder why am I not allowed to delete files on the right, because left is the actual version? I just want to tell it „delete left“, „delete right“ or „delete both sides“. If you always put the newer version right and the older version left, and definitely only want to mirror right to left, all is well. But I keep local tabs left and external tabs right, so the mirroring direction changes. Hopefully, this makes my intention clearer. It's just not necessary to limit deletion functionality.
