code-settings-sync: Stuck in infinite upload loop

Visual Studio Code Version : [ 1.6.1 ] Code Sync Settings Version : [ 2.3.3 ] Operating System : [ MacOs Sierra ] Occurs On: [Launch VSCode]

Hey, sorry it’s me again 😦

As you can see on my gist (i put it in public), i was stuck on auto upload loop when launching my VScode on my work computer this morning (look at revisions) : https://gist.github.com/DavidBabel/4d3ee20908324edd0c94567083c6d390

This behaviour completly wipe my default config and make vscode unusable since i don’t change the property “showlog” to false

Here is my config file :

{  
   "Token":"valid token",
   "Gist":"4d3ee20908324edd0c94567083c6d390",
   "lastUpload":"2016-10-24T08:51:52.815Z",
   "firstTime":true,
   "autoDownload":true,
   "autoUpload":true,
   "allowUpload":true,
   "lastDownload":"2016-10-24T08:50:52.406Z",
   "Version":233,
   "showSummary":true,
   "publicGist":false,
   "forceDownload":false,
   "showLog":false,
   "openLinks":false
}

If i have any way to give you a hand for finding why this issue occurs, let me know how.

@andreagrandi No Rush! Take Your Time 😃

@shanalikhan hi, I’ve just tried it on my work MacBook and it seems to work fine. I’ve also tried to manually upload settings, to verify if the loop was triggered and it wasn’t. I will test on my home MacBook too this evening and I will let you know.

Maybe it’s bullshit, but the file “syncSummary.txt” is created in the same directory as all others options files. Any chance it trigger the loop ?

Yes extension is watching all the files.

I have published newer version @andreagrandi 2.3.7. Let me know if solve the problem

Ohhhhh now I start to understand what you meant! 😃 Basically, your extension watches for changes and if there are it uploads them. My DS_Store is being updated and it counts as change… so the extension is triggered. Correct?
