# Upload synchronization modes:
# mode=0: Upload all files
# mode=1: Upload all files that do not exist on the FTP server.
# mode=2: Upload newer or non-existant files.
# mode=3: Upload only newer files.  If a file does not already exist on the FTP server, it is not uploaded.
# mode=4: transfer missing files or files with size differences.
# mode=5: same as mode 4, but also newer files.

# Additional files and directores can be excluded by setting the SyncMustNotMatch property.
# The SyncMustNotMatch patterns apply only to the final filename or directory part of a path.
# If a directory matches, then it will not be traversed in a recursive traversal.
