Gravity saves unchanged files

Post by horst39 »

I wanted to backup a file every 30 minutes, but only if the file has been changed.
After some time In history I see a lot of backups with 0 bytes as actually the file has not changed.
But I don't want all those 0 byte files in history.
"Engine/Advanced/Save empty backup items" is unchecked.
Further settings:
Use attributes: YES
Clear archive attribute: YES
The file is on a NTFS partition
Any suggestion, please

Oh, sorry. Missed that it was about gravity.

Yes, I think this was a bug there. Not sure now.

:( :( :(
I am sorry too.
But I don't think it is difficult to correct this.
At least don't print in history if size is=0

Very easy to change. Unfortunately I don't own Gravity anymore.
