File sync excludes version control system directories like`.git/` from synchronization, so keep your Git-cloned repository wherever you run Git commands.

This means that if you use an IDE with a built-in terminal to edit files on your remote workspace, that should be the Git clone and your local directory should be for file syncs.

File sync shows a`Conflicts` status when it detects conflicting files.

You can hover your mouse over the status for the list of conflicts:


If you encounter a synchronization conflict, delete the conflicting file that contains changes you don't want to keep.
