Hi, I am trying to modify the Ubuntu One File syncing python scripts to not including things like .iso's.
I have got as far as finding this file: /usr/share/pyshared/ubuntuone/u1sync/constants.py
Inside is this piece of code:
import re
# the name of the directory u1sync uses to keep metadata about a mirror
METADATA_DIR_NAME = u".ubuntuone-sync"
# filenames to ignore
SPECIAL_FILE_RE = re.compile(".*\\.("
"(u1)?partial|part|"
"(u1)?conflict(\\.[0-9]+)?)$")
How can I edit this last section (regex?) and make it ignore .iso files??? I'm fairly sure this is the place to put it!
Pretty sure this is standard python action :)
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks kindly.
Andy
