The other replies addressed how to do this, but be cautious about doing so. What happens if user 1 commits, which fires off a sync command which takes 4 seconds, and within those seconds, user 2 commits something else, which fires off a second sync command? Do they compete with one another? Or does the second one wait in an orderly fashion for the first one to complete? Be sure you have an answer to this question before you make this change.
