This looks good. I've downloaded the manual and have been reading
through it.
I can't find the special case that I am looking for though.
If I sync server1 and client1, then delete a file a client1, then sync
server1 and client1 again, does it copy the deleted file back to the
client or does it remove the file from server1?
