may I suggest to add scripting examples?
I mean in docs/scriptcommand_synchronize, it gives only the command which is
so it doesn't help to understand how this command should be used in the command line.
This is why I didn't understand about the quotes.
If you add such example, it would easier to get the idea:

synchronize both d:\www /home/martin/public_html
so it doesn't help to understand how this command should be used in the command line.

I was so focused on my mask that I didn't see the equal sign :-(
Thanks a lot Martin.
Have a nice day.

Re: Can't exclude directories in command line
You are missing an equal sign. And you also have quotes wrong.
It should be:
If this does not help, please post session log file.
It should be:
"synchronize local . / -filemask=|mydir/"
If this does not help, please post session log file.

Can't exclude directories in command line
Hi,
I really can't understand from the manual, how to exclude a directory. :-(
I'm using WinSCP 6.3.1.14821 on Win2022.
I have a FTP server containing:
On my local machine, I
It still downloads
Even WinSCP dialog generates such filemask so what is the filemask I should use?
Output is:
Thanks.

I'm using WinSCP 6.3.1.14821 on Win2022.
I have a FTP server containing:
/mydir
/mydir/myfile.txt
...
On my local machine, I
cd into a directory and call the following to synchronize everything except mydir completely:
WinSCP.com ftp://user:password@ftp.domain.com /command "synchronize local . /" -filemask "|mydir/" exit
It still downloads
mydir, even if I use |/mydir/.
Even WinSCP dialog generates such filemask so what is the filemask I should use?
Output is:
Synchronizing...
Local '.' <= Remote '/'
mydir | 0 B | 0,0 KB/s | binary | 0%
other files...
Thanks.
