> However, when I think of the goal of the project as trying to synchronise two directories and hold the most up to date information, isn't it possible that initially both directories were full (with file X), I then delete X from dir2 (making it empty),and I then run the mysync program with the goal of synchronising my recent changes. Wouldnt it make more sense in that case for mysync.c to delete X file from dir1, to make both the directories empty? Rather than just copying X into dir2 which brings us back to where we started (reverting my initial changes rather than synchronising).
