I've created an encrypted sparsebundle image to store some files that I want to keep safe in my Google Drive. However, I noticed, that even when just mounting this image and reading files (simple text files) the Google Drive application is constantly uploading "changes". Why is this? I just perform a reading on files? More importantly, is there a way of stopping this? There is no point to have to re-upload constantly blocks that in essence didn't change.
Any tips or help regarding this?
Interesting enough though, the "last read" date/time for the individual files is not being updated. But maybe it is happening indeed on somewhat more folder level.
I want to try to avoid mounting read only, but indeed that would be a solution/ – Sander – 2014-04-03T13:47:47.133
Tried this, sadly, still makes some changes to the sparebundles that triggers uploading to the drive. Might have to start mounting just for reading when not writing otherwise. This way it cluttering the Google Drive "recent changes" view. – Sander – 2014-04-12T20:44:18.670
