What
File sync is now a named action wherever publish and live-edit are, with its own failure handling and a device-side sync_files tool. If a directory has too many untracked files to upload in one go, you get a message telling you to add a .gitignore entry or commit the ones you need.
Details
"sync" is accepted alongside "publish" and "live-edit" where an action is chosen.
A sync_failed case is added to the error handling for forwarded remote tool calls.
Evidence
one sync upload carries; add a .gitignore entry or commit the ones you need
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
