Download Unison (Mac) – Download & Review Free

this unison The File Synchronizer macOS application enables you to quickly synchronize the contents of two folders while providing extensive control over the direction of synchronization for each specific file.

The best part is that Unison can create an exact copy of a specific folder on a different drive connected to your Mac or in a remote location. This way, you can work on a set of files while ensuring that the originals are backed up to a different location, with the option to mirror changes with minimal effort.

Easy to setup folder synchronizer that handles an unlimited number of tasks

Unison comes with a minimalistic GUI, but a command line tool can also be installed, which can prove useful if you need to sync files to a remote location. In the main Unison window you can define an unlimited number of folder pairs and you will be able to sync them faster.

Note that you must use the application’s Unison Rescan feature to detect changes in the root folder. The next step is to set the sync direction and start the transfer manually.

Identify sync conflicts and allow users to resolve issues

If a file has been updated in both root folders, but with different contents, Unison will indicate a conflict, which will have to be resolved by the user. However, Unison can automatically handle non-conflicting files and even resolve “spurious conflicts” by itself.

Unison is a great tool if you want to simplify the synchronization of two directories (including their subfolders) while having extensive control over the process. The application enables you to decide the direction of synchronization for each file, identifies possible conflicts, and enables you to decide what to do.
