I have a request I'd like to make as I see that the core functionality is now being separated from the GUI. I think it would be useful to have some aspects such as the file chunking/encryption algorithm separated out into a reusable java api. I don't believe there is an api available with this functionality and I believe it is rather non-trivial to chunk a file in such a way as to maximize re-use of previously used chunks (assuming this functionality is in syncanny). In fact I would be interested to learn how the current code efficiently rechunks a file to minimize the amount of data that needs to be sent over the network E.g. if some data is inserted in the middle of the file we obviously don't want to re-upload all chunks after this point but this seems non-trivial to implement. Can anyone offer a short explanation?
thanks!
