Version 2.2.0 (build 120) - 29 November 2024
The main new feature in this release is a view to verify if your local data needs to be updated from remote or not. If you are using two or more macs, which I do, and all macs synchronise data to the same remote storage. If that remote storage is not a Git server, like GitHub, there might be some challenges keeping the macs in sync and not losing any data.

The discover error bug
In version 2.1.6, there was a refactor to replace Combine in several places in code. Combine is only used within the Process object:
Combine is only used in the Process object
listening for signals from rsync when it executes, as far as I understand from reading other articles about Combine it is not clear what the future of
Combine is
The refactor of Combine introduced a bug for discover rsync error: Discover rsync error: from
the rsync output requiere set on in RsyncUI Settings. If an error is discovered, a message is thrown and the error is
written to the log.
Monitor network
Monitor network is set on or off in RsyncUI settings.
Lately, on macOS Sequoia, the monitor network has reported some false negatives. And sometimes it does not complain about missing network at all. I dont know why this happens. There is a timout, a few seconds, on the check, and if the respond from server is not received before timeout an error is thrown.
The check verify, by TCP on port 22 if port is not changed, that the server responds. And sometimes when the code throws an error dropped network, RsyncUI still manage to pull data from the server.
The monitor network code is refactored and only checked once, if set on, when the profile is loaded and there are networked tasks.
