| - | When a mask selects files and it makes sense to select them based on directory, you can extend the mask with a path mask. You should separate the path mask from the filename mask by a slash. For example mask ''/home/martinp/*.txt'' matches all text files within the directory. To match all text files within subtree, use mask ''/home/martinp/*.txt; /home/martinp/*/*.txt''.((Simpler, but less precise, form would be ''/home/martinp*/*.txt'')) | + | When a mask selects files and it makes sense to select them based on directory, you can extend the mask with a path mask.

| The path mask is matched against full path, i.e. not against path relative path to a root of file transfer or synchronization. E.g. mask ''public_html/wiki/'' does not match ''/home/martinp/public_html/wiki'' directory, even if the root of file transfer or synchronization is ''/home/martinp''. Partial path mask that matches an absolute path may look like ''*/public_html/wiki/''. | The path mask is matched against full path, i.e. not against path relative path to a root of file transfer or synchronization.
