As I understand it, Terry's plugin uses the cloud provider API to update the contents, thereby sidestepping issues with filesystem automatic syncing changing contents without Leo noticing the change. Note: This might be dropbox only. I'm not sure plugin knows about other provider APIs. The safe method to do it manually is turn off or pause the syncing daemon while working and then resume it after done. On the same topic: it's risky to put a Git or Hg repo in a Dropbox or Nextlcoud monitored folder. That way corruption lies and if it's private repo you might lose all history. I learned the hard way! -matt -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
