In Web development, sometimes it can get confusing managing ver-sions of files Where is the most recent file? This question is one that you'll probably ask yourself more than once throughout the develop-ment of a site Dreamweaver solves this problem with an option called File Synchronization This feature compares files between the local and remote site and will determine which is the latest version If the latest version lives on the local site, it will upload that file accordingly File Synchronization can also delete files on either the local or remote site,

if the file doesn't appear in both versions of the site You can apply the synchronize command to selected files, or apply it site-wide

Cloaking files hides the selected files from many of the file transfer commands, such as: Get, Put, Check In, and Check Out; however, it doesn’t protect files when using Synchronize For example, you have a folder on you local site that contains original uncompressed source documents, such as Photoshop and Flash There would be no need for these files to be uploaded to the remote server, so you cloak them Any file format you cloak remains in your local folder and will not be uploaded unless you manually override the cloak setting In addition, cloaked files do not appear in the Assets panel Cloaked files can be controlled by extension, such as all FLA files, or they can be controlled individually, regardless of their extension You can cloak specific fold-ers, even multiple ones; however, you cannot cloak all folders or an entire site
