====== 2025.05.23 Synchronizing with WinSCP ======

How to synchronize a remote folder using WinSCP on Windows.

In this case, we'll connect using key authentication, with everything stored in the `Desktop\Sync` folder.
<code>
Desktop\Sync
  sync.bat
  upload.txt
  key.ppk
</code>

===== 1. Create an SFTP session in WinSCP =====

Assume that you have created a connection configuration to `hogehoge.com`.

===== 2. Batch File =====

Synchronize the local folder `C:\Users\hogehoge\` with the remote folder `sync`.

<color #ed1c24>※ If the path contains Japanese characters, the encoding of `upload.bat` must be Shift-JIS to avoid errors.</color>

<code|upload.bat>
@rem sync
set LOCAL="C:\Users\hogehoge\"
set REMOTE="sync"
set SESSION="sftp://matsui@hogehoge.com"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\winscp.exe" /script=upload.txt /parameter %SESSION% %LOCAL% %REMOTE% /console /log=upload.log /privatekey=key.ppk
</code>

===== 3. WinSCP Script =====

<color #ed1c24>※ The `-delete` option deletes files on the remote side that do not exist locally.</color>

<code|upload.txt>
option exclude "./03_App/Atom/; ./02_Photos/; */_old/; ./99_*/"
open %1%
lcd %2%
cd %3%
synchronize remote -delete -criteria=time
exit
</code>

※ To exclude folders, list them in `option exclude` (use `;` to separate multiple paths)
