[Early Preview] Studio Script Sync

Updates Announcements
87

Really appreciate the early preview!

I’m hoping to get clarification on the following planned features:

  • The ability to sync folders + their script descendants
  • Starting sync from the state on disk, rather than the state in Studio

Two related questions:

  1. Will folders with instances other than scripts have the ability to sync?
  2. How will the hierarchy of a folder’s descendants in the DM translate to the hierarchy of a file system (Studio → Disk) and vice versa (Disk → Studio)?

For example, how would Studio Script Sync know what to do with the following:

Example 1:

  • Folder (to sync)
    • ScriptA
      • ScriptB
        • ScriptC

Example 2:

  • Folder (to sync)
    • ScriptA
    • Model
      • ScriptB

And whatever state these end up in on disk, how would Studio Script Sync know how to map the file system’s scripts back to the folder’s hierarchy in the DM?

Since syncing folders to and from disk are planned features, I’m assuming the answers to these questions are known. Any high level clarification is much appreciated, thanks!
