Description
I am using Cyberduck 3.5.1 (6117) to maintain a Joomla website from my laptop. I wanted to upgrade Joomla and downloaded an upgrade pack which is a tar file containing only the changed files. Then I used Cyberduck, selected the httpdocs from my website and choose Synchronize from the action menu. Then I choose the local directory containing the new file (same structure as httpdocs but a subset). In the selector that came up after Cyberduck logged in I choose Upload. I was very surprised to see later that one local directory (the directory templates that contains additional stuff on the server) had been updated in the other direction, i.e. the subdirectories on the server that were not on the laptop had been downloaded. How can this be?

Similar problem here, using v. 3.3 (5552). Even though 'upload' is selected, it also DOWNLOADS FILES during the 'synchronize' operation. Sorry my Version is outdated, but there is no note about that in the version history. Will confirm if 3.5 has this solved, but I guess not?! Also, as a feature request: Upload and delete (locally) missing files would be great to maintain consistency!

You should upgrade. I only accept bug reports against the latest release and the issues noted in the ticket are the only synchronization issues known as of version 3.5.1.

I took a more detailed look and it appears that the problem is slightly less severe. It does not download files but only the directory structure. I.e. it reconstructs the directory tree on the local site but with empty directories. Still I think this is fundamentally wrong for two reasons:
