Product Description:
FileSync provides selectable synchronization of files or folders to networked Macs, external drives, USB flash drives and mounted disk images. FileSync updates recently modified files any "lone" files between Master and Copy locations. A "mirror" option is provided that only updates with the Master's file structure and moves all new and orphaned files on the Copy location to the Trash. A progress window shows files updated during synchronization. A handy drawer allows storage of many synchronization lists. FileSync is universal binary.
What's new in this version:
FileSync 2.0.8 introduces improvements and a new timer feature. An obscure bug that affected file deletion when mirroring is fixed, available disk space is measured more accurately, read-only volumes or servers will report "disk is full".
FileSync synchronization is now threaded and cancelable. Synchronization lists are stored in a drawer panel (formerly the servers drawer); selecting one displays its list of Sync items. Each Sync item consists of a Master file or folder, and its related Copy location (enclosing folder). FileSync compares file modification dates and only copies new and most recently modified files between the two locations.

Looks good... - Version: 2.2, 8/10/2009 05:04PM PST

...but confused: will it copy back changes in the "dupe" folder to the "master" folder if Mirror is deselected?
Solves a Big Problem: Continue to Copy After Error - Version: 2.0.8, 3/16/2009 11:52AM PST

One big annoyance of the Finder is it just halts the moment it encounters an error while copying. If you have a CD/DVD with problems on it, like a clip art disk with thousands of files and only a few random ones have errors, FileSync will skip over the bad files and continue to copy the good ones. This saves hours of aggravation (especially when compared with starting and stopping a Finder copy, file by file, over and over again). And it's very easy to just select the exact folders you want.
didn't work for me - Version: 2.0.2, 7/10/2008 10:12PM PST

The "mirror" option doesn't work. I reorganized a bunch of files on my Master disk but the Copy failed to reflect changes after sync. Waste of time.
