    Hi there, mirror always fetches all files and does not compare at least size and date and fetches only differences.
    Is there an other possibility to do that by apple script as 1. Call remote folder 2. optional set filter 3. Compare remote and local
    ....
    Its not so funny to download all Files from the logs.....

    Fetch's mirror function does have trouble if the server does not support the MDTM (modification date and time) command. It is possible to write a script to do mirroring differently, and I will work to improve the feature in future releases.

    Thanks,

    I second this! I really want to be able to see a list of which files and folders are different and decide on a case-by-case basis in which direction I want to mirror each one.

    Thanks for that feedback, Frances. We will try to improve the mirror feature in a future release.
