One way sync #687
Comments
MEGAsync does not currently offer the option to one-way sync however our developers are working on this feature, which will be available in a future release. Currently, as a workaround, you can achieve one-way syncing by using the manual "Upload" and "Download" features. You can use the "Upload" feature from the MEGAsync user interface to manually upload the same file/folder to the same destination folder in your MEGA Cloud Drive. MEGAsync will detect the files that are already there and only upload the new or modified ones. This way you can delete the folder on your computer afterward and this action won't be reflected in your Cloud Drive. In the same way, the "Download" feature will allow you to download files/folders without syncing them. This way you can delete the folder in your Cloud Drive afterward and this action won't be reflected in your locally synced folder. As an alternative, you can simply delete the sync path after syncing. You can then delete the folder/file on your computer and this action won't be reflected on your Cloud Drive, or vice-versa. |
one could also do it with rclone. |
Any method for One-way sync, please? |

"Upload" and "Synchronize" features does NOT share the same folder in MEGA. You can't modify/move files sent by "Upload" feature. |
No. |
Yeah, I tried mega-backup and that just dumbly copies files from source to destination. That's no good when I have 1TB of files and an 8Mbps upload DSL link. I used to have a remote server running rsync, so I could use rsync which uploaded only the changes (a few hundreds of MB most days). When I tried mega-backup it took a few weeks to upload the first backup (fair enough for 1.1TB and a slow link) but then the subsequent backup wasn't smart enough to use the data already uploaded to Mega. |
I don't want multiple backups too. |
https://rclone.org/mega/ looks promising (last update was 2023-03-14, well after akyag above had problems with rclone and Mega. |
I can confirm rclone has been working better these days. I haven't had any issue with sync. :) |
Thanks. Unfortunately for me rclone on Debian doesn't support Mega.nz storage (due to a missing go-mega backend). I've requested it be added (not having the skills to volunteer myself) - see: |
megasync is always STUCKED. |
rclone is crap and doesn't have GUI, a must in 21st century |
MEGAcmd doesn't have GUI. |
Sadly I have to retract this... Mega rate limits rclone after like 5 mins. I need to try with rclone mount and see what happens. :( |
I was using rclone to backup my folder to mega but it failed over and over. Support made me aware of this tool. sync worked perfectly till I tried to sync an existing folder. which resulted in remote data being synced with my local. This is not what I wanted. Is it possible to sync only one way? from local to remote and keep the mirror copy of local only. This is possible using rclone.
