Seafile Client - only sync if you use it?

Seafile Client
#1

Hello,

I am using MacOS, sadly or of course, most of the People have limited Storage Space. :wink:
My Library is around 700GB an I can not sync all the Items to my Macbook.

Is there an Option like in Microsoft OneDrive that you only Download the Files when you use it ?
Or only Sync certain Directory’s ? (So that I can select, no to Sync the Photos Folder of the last 10 years)

Thanks,

Best Regards
-Markus

To me this sounds like you would be interested in the “Drive Client”, not “Seafile Client”, which should only download the files you’re working on.

Otherwise, I can selectively sync subfolders of libraries using the client (I don’t use Mac, so I cannot tell you how that works on your machine) by opening the “cloud file browser” and then selecting whichever folder I want to sync and right-clicking → Sync this folder.
