Update .ftp-deploy-sync-state.json during sync process

[jakludev]

Bug Description
Please implement and option to auto update uploaded items to .ftp-deploy-sync-state.json and add parameter to change how often to update the json, so when the process due to random FTP or sync error fails, it stays saved for the next time. Currently if this happens, you can't upload items, because it might fail every time. There would be also timeout error, large amount of items stops or etc.

I need to push Drupal 9 with vendor and composer and its not possible without this feature, so i must copy vendor manually and then sync just some files and its pretty slow method, thanks :-)

I just came across this issue today, with a large first-time upload failing after the mid point due to the host's DNS settings, and FTP-Deploy-Action doesn't update .ftp-deploy-sync-state.json even after uploading thousands of files, after throwing Error: The operation was canceled

It would be great to update the state file at certain upload intervals so that the upload can continue off, great idea!

if sync files .ftp-deploy-sync-state.json can be updated together with when the process is running is will be greate

This is not suitable for uploading large files I use codeigniter 4 it takes a long time using the exclude feature to upload files a little bit and I gave up on uploading thirdparty vendors and replaced the code with composer

Same problem here with complete WordPress folder for uploading.

Hey guys! I had the same problem and I have a workaround that can help someone. Letting a script, a txt and a readme which allows to prevent uploading the entire project when it's already uploaded but not synced.

I had 2 projects and it worked in both so I hope it works fine for you as well and save you some time and resources.

Hope it helps!
