it would be only a few, and most instances should be neutralized at a
slightly higher level anyway. if we wanted it at all.
I should also mention another motiviating reason for the "copy file"
method was that it nicely handles the situation in which a path is
expected to exist due to calling mkdir_p() earlier, but doesn't due to
its dry run path being taken. By simply creating a temporary file in
"/tmp/..." or wherever, the dry behaviour accurately mimics the real
behaviour due to leaving the file empty rather than failing.
huh?
Then this should be _explicitly_ mentioned in the manual.
fair. proposed rewritten version:
Enter simulation mode: the Channel status is queried and all required
operations are determined, but no synchronization is actually performed.
Note that this does not imply completely read-only operation, as
mailbox book-keeping is still performed by the drivers.
in fact, opening imap mailboxes will positively cause the
imap server to execute equivalent steps as far as necessary.
Which mbsync should be able to handle.
it obviously is.
