You can also put the name of the folder to be ionrged into the exclude' file in .git/info'.That way, you have all your ignores in one central place and don't have to commit that change.
 
 
==Directory Comparison==
 
 
 
To quickly see differences between files on the local machine and the server :
 
* Choose View > Directory Comparison > and either :
 
** "compare file size" or
 
** "compare modification time."
 
* Enable the "Hide identical files" option if you don't want to be distracted by files considered the same on both sides.
 
* Choose " View > Directory Comparison > Enable" (or type CTRL-O).
 
 
 
You will now see color-coded differences between copies of the same file on the different machines, observing the following convention:
 
* Identical directories and files (same name and same date and time of the last change) in the local computer and in the remote server : They are '''NOT''' highlighted at all.
 
* Directories and files only present in the local computer or in the remote server : They are highlighted in '''YELLOW''' in the list of the location where they reside.
 
* Directories and files with the same name in the local computer and in the remote server but with different time of the last change :
 
**  (IF 'View => Directory comparison => Compare modification time selected) '''GREEN''' highlighting shows where the most recent version is.
 
* Directories and files with the same name in the local computer and in the remote server but with different sizes : ......???........ (Writer's observation: They tend a lot to also have different last change times! I believe they should be displayed in the same form that those with different last change times, but I haven't do this test yet.)
 
**  (IF 'View => Directory comparison => Compare filesize selected) They are highlighted '''RED''' on both sides.
 
 
 
==File => Export...==
 
 
 
Lets you export any or all of the following contents:
 
* Site Manager entries;
 
* Settings
 
* Queue
 
 
 
The selected contents are saved in a .XML file that you can import to another computer, using the File => Import... option.
