Uploads and modification times

When uploading files to an FTP server, GoLive caches the local modification time for any file you transfer to the server. When an upload is successfully finished, GoLive gets a file listing with the time of the file modifications on the server. GoLive stores both modification times in the site file and a reference so GoLive can distinguish newer files from older ones. This enables GoLive to perform incremental and modified-item uploads.

In the event that the modification times for the local and server files become out of sync because you used a third-party FTP client or because an upload was unsuccessful, GoLive lets you manually synchronize the modification times on both the server and local files without transferring any data. (See Synchronizing the modification times for local and server files.)
