Assume I opened folder compare and loaded two directories.
Now I want to mark exactly one (big) subdirectory and "clone" it to the other side.
In other word I want
- to delete files on the target side which do not exist on the source side
- overwrite files on the target side with the files on the source side (if they exist there)
- copy new files on the source side to the target side.
Alternatively I could delete the whole subdirectory on the target side and copy the whole directory from the source side (again). But this would cause a lot of unnecessary overhead since already existing files must be re-transferred again.
Is this function equal by a "mirror left" operation?
