Pre-Operation Checks

To help protect against accidentally overwriting or deleting files, hoard runs some consistency checks prior to running any operations.

To skip running the checks, run hoard with the --force flag. There is not currently a way to disable individual checks.

Last Paths

This check compares the paths used previously with a given hoard to the ones resolved for the current operation. If any of these paths differ, a warning is displayed and the operation(s) canceled.

Remote Operations

By default, hoard logs information about successful operations to a directory that is intended to be synchronized with the main hoards directory. This information is used to determine if a given file was last modified by a remote system. If so, a warning is displayed and the operation(s) canceled.
