Comment on How do you manage your server files?

  I would just use rsync on the whole folder.

  Rsync is smart enough to be able to only send files you didnt’ have previously like a regular mv command.

  Or you can sync the whole directory and have it also delete removed files.

    I’m now considering syncing my minecraft world with syncthing, I already use it for some things but don’t know why I didn’t think of doing that.

    On the other hand, if I have a 100+ gb media library, it seems kinda over the top to also have it fully copied on my local machine. Do you do this?

      When it comes to media like my music library and comics for example I just use rsync to move new ones to the server every time I collect some new (I have about 60gb of it)

        so you basically have a copy of your media library on a local machine?
