| 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.

| - | For a partial path mask it makes no difference whether you use back (''\'') or forward ==slash==es (''/''); the mask will always work for both local and remote paths. For example, a mask ''*/public_html/*.bak'' will match backup files both in ''D:\Documents\public_html\'' and ''/home/martinp/public_html/''. | + | For a partial path mask it makes no difference whether you use back (''\'') or forward ==slashes== (''/''); the mask will always work for both local and remote paths.

| Paths starting with a dot followed by a slash (''./'' or ''.\'') are matched from the root of the operation (such as file transfer or synchronization). For example, when uploading files and folders from local path ''D:\Documents\public_html\'' to remote path ''/home/martinp/public_html/'', mask ''.\data\*.txt'' matches ''*.txt'' files in ''D:\Documents\public_html\data\''. | Paths starting with a dot followed by a slash (''./'' or ''.\'') are matched from the root of the operation (such as file transfer or synchronization).
