How does synching work?

Well, it's complicated. You really don't want to know.


But the short answer is, everything uses version numbers. Each time you modify a page, we might update its version number, to indicate that it has been modified. When we do a synch, we compare version numbers, to decide which is more recent.


The conduit does not use timestamps for comparison, for many reasons.


In a multi-user environment, we have to keep several version numbers. This is why a shared, synched collection requires a local copy - so that we can keep enough information to perform a correct synch.
