Synchronize browsing functionality
I've been using WinSCP for a while now and it's a great program. One of the reasons I started using it was the synchronize browsing functionality. This works as I expected until I change to a folder that doesn't exist.
Current behaviour:
It displays the popup querying whether I would like to create the folder. After I click No, the synchronize browsing is switched off. I have to reenable it once I'm back in the parent folder.
Requested behaviour:
Add a setting that never prompts whether folder should be created (and never creates one). The sync browsing should remain enabled after the unsynchronized folder is selected. The sync behaviour should stay the same for folders as is now, except for the level up (..) folder. The level up folder should only be synced when there are one or more the same files/subfolders in each folder.
I believe this would greatly increase the usability of the synchronize browsing function. Allowing to quickly browse through local and remote locations, finding / copying files or doing whatever action whilst not have to re-enable the synchronized browsing after it gets out of sync.
For advanced settings it would be nice to ignore certain files in the level up comparison (e.g. .htaccess or other files that appear in all directories) or set a minimum number of files/folders that have to be the same.
Looking forward to hear what you think!
