Abstract

The disclosed technology relates to a system configured to identify at least one difference between a sync tree and at least one of a remote tree and a local tree. The sync tree represents a known synced state between a server state and a file system state, the remote tree represents the server state, and the local tree represents the file system state. The system may further generate, based on the at least one difference, a set of operations configured to converge the server state and the file system state and manage the execution of the set of operations.
