syncthing-resolve-conflicts

Script for deleting duplicate *sync-conflict* files created by Syncthing.

Usage:

./resolve-conflicts.sh <directory>

Depends on:

  • find

Description

syncthing-resolve-conflicts is a bash script that uses the Unix find utility to locate files matching the pattern "sync-conflict". For each sync-conflict file that is found, the corresponding non-conflict file is matched. Then the sha256sum of each file in the pair is calculated. If the sums are equal, the redundant sync-conflict file is deleted. Otherwise, a message is shown so the user can investigate manually.
