Description
I would love to see a sync feature added to the application:
- Upon creation of the ramdisk, automatically copy the contents of a folder to it. This would be set by a path in the 'create' dialog and/or in the auto-create manager.
- When the above folder is set, add an icon to the menu to save the updated contents of the TmpDisk back to the specified path (under "Current TmpDisks", next to the re-create and eject icons)
- Add a setting to automatically save the state of the disk on exit (Yes/No/Prompt)
- Add optional setting to keep contents of the folder periodically sync'd in the background (0 for instant sync, or another number to schedule it every n minutes)
I work with projects that have thousands of small files, and these projects are typically stored on a network drive. Working on them directly over the network is super slow because of WiFi latency, so my current workflow is to copy them to a ramdisk locally and copy them back when I'm done. Building this functionality into the application directly to make it all transparent would be fantastic.
Having it reach out to the system's rsync rather than incorporating its own logic should make development fairly straightforward.
