From the maintainer on that same issue thread: > Something I would consider is a hidden way to do this that's more convenient, like having an Alt modifier on the menu that changes "Add Remote Project..." to "Force Sync" or something like it, since obviously SparkleShare isn't perfect. Although I'm not going to write it and it would have to work on every OS which could make it a considerable task... Then lower down another user expressed interest in dev'ving that for one of the three supported platforms: > I suppose a hidden way is better than none. I'd be willing to contribute a patch for the Linux side of the house, if one is available for another platform for comparison. Finally, the author mentioned at the bottom something about redoing notifications before closing the issue. So when you wrote, "I haven't touched Sparkleshare since," did you mean since reading that single post you quoted? Or did you continue reading the rest of the posts from that same day which I quoted, and then decided that you didn't want to contribute nor interact with potential contributors to help solve that issue in the way the maintainer offered?

> From the maintainer on that same issue thread: ... That's the part that really makes me scratch my head. Why would you want to hide the option, especially if doing so requires a lot of work on multiple OSes? Add a menu option to force a sync, problem solved. > Then lower down another user expressed interest in dev'ving that for one of the three supported platforms: Which doesn't really help, because he was already told that's not enough, and the feature has never been added. > So when you wrote, "I haven't touched Sparkleshare since," did you mean since reading that single post you quoted?

It doesn't do what I need it to do, and I don't have a few hundred hours to figure out how to create a hidden menu item on three OSes, so yes, I haven't touched it since 2012.
