Comment on How do you manage your server files?
legoraft@reddthat.com 4 months agoI’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?

No, I only have new files on my local machine, and as I collect new stuff I move them to my server with rsync and just remove it onthe local machine.
Rsync is more than smart enough to, if you keep same folder structure to easilly move the files to the server without you having to manually copy other each file.

sounds good, do you have any docs on how to do that?
