I think it would be useful to be able to ignore files above a certain size. I recently lost a couple of large files because they were synced to my google drive, maxed out my quota, and then I deleted them on the remote, which lost them locally. Probably stupid of me, but if I could tell it not to sync large files that would be a very helpful option.
@roald What do you think of this idea: By default, insync syncs all files under the directory root. It would be nice to allow power users to specify exactly the subset of local files that they want to be considered for syncing. To do that, allow the users to specify the arguments to the UNIX find command.
This would allow the user a very large degree of flexibility to specify the subset of files by name, size, modification time, etc etc. Clearly this is an “advanced option” for “power users”, but I suspect that the insync userbase is enriched for quite technical users. This option would be most natural on OS X and linux, where find is always available.
+1 for being able to limit by file size. I’d recommend including this as an option by itself because it would be very useful for non-power users too (and then have the suggested find-based option as a separate/additional option).
