Can some explain me why the behavior in Symmetric and Asymmetric modes are
different?
The Synchronizer in Symmetric mode make left and right sides equal, but in
Asymmetric mode - NOT. Why?
Why for asymmetric mode user needs additional actions?
If someone needs to prevent newer files overwrite, please add new feature like
checkbox "Prevent (or warn) newer files overwrite". Changing the existing and
correct behavior is not a good idea. In my case and all users of Synchronizer
whom I know overwriting new files is an expected action. For example, I just
run some script for testing in left directory, and I need to restore it from
right one to run test again. Other use case when overwrite is expected -
synchronization of PC home directory to the external HDD. In fact, I do NOT
have any use case, when Asymmetric is chosen but newer files on the left should
not be overwritten
P.S. And please, do not even mention "right-click menu" in results tree. It is
absolutely useless when working with thousands of items.
