Hi
Have been using Beyond Compare (BC) for a while now but I have stumbled across something I hope there is a good answer for.
I use BC to maintain two sets of project files - one on my laptop, one on a server. BC does a stirling job of comparing the two. But, if I move one file from one sub folder, to another, BC after comparing and sync'ing, will create two copies. I've tried to illustrate this in the attached screenshot. Does beyond compare not recognise from the filename and datestamp that they are the same, or is that a 'decision' that BC has not been allowed to make?
Thanks in advance.
Jim
