@MuelNova
Firstly, this appears to be a very odd issue as this is explicitly tested in the ~150 use cases which are gone through when validating version releases, so I 100% suspect this has to do with how you are configuring your 'sync_list' file - thus this is not a bug - sorry.

A bug refers to technical issues like application crashes, memory leaks, or logical errors, warranting a GitHub issue for resolution. In contrast, difficulties with feature usage or integration challenges should prompt opening a GitHub discussion instead.

Please be mindful of this in the future.

As to your issue, from your config output, your 'sync_list' is the following:

Blog/
NovaNo1r/Blog/
/NovaNo1r/Blog/

I get what you are trying to achieve here - however you are not configuring your 'sync_list' correctly. The file excludes everything by default , however as you want to include specific directories, you will need specify to explicitly exclude the root directory, then include the sub directory:

# Include NovaNo1r/Blog 
# Parent and all other children of parent will be skipped
/NovaNo1r/Blog/*

Now - if the above suggestion does not resolve your issue , this will not be fixed in v2.4.25 - sorry.

My advice is that you change to start using v2.5.0-rc1 - please read #2662 on how to obtain, build and start using the RC1 client version which has been totally re-written.

If you still encounter an issue with v2.5.0-rc1 then this will be looked at before v2.5.0 release is done.

Please read:

• https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/blob/master/docs/USAGE.md#performing-a-selective-sync-via-sync_list-file
• OneDrive Client Version v2.5.0-rc1 #2661
• OneDrive Client Version v2.5.0-rc1 is now available for testing #2662
• https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/blob/onedrive-v2.5.0-release-candidate-1/docs/usage.md#performing-a-selective-synchronisation-via-sync_list-file

@MuelNova
I have confirmed the behavior with v2.4.25 and v2.5.0-rc1 and the behavior is as expected when using:

# Include NovaNo1r/Blog 
# Parent and all other children of parent will be skipped
/NovaNo1r/Blog/*

I have also updated the v2.5.x documentation to ensure that this sort of configuration is clearer to understand.

As such, I am closing this issue as this is not a bug (as demonstrated) but is a client configuration issue and partly a documentation issue which has been fixed.

[MuelNova]

Thank you for your detailed answer. I have tested that and everything works well right now.😄

However, there are something I want to explain though.

I do see that "everything will be excluded", but what I have wrote was

/NovaNo1r
!/NovaNo1r/*
/NovaNo1r/Blog

Which, from now perspective, is kinda silly.

Thank you for your kind advice. I know that I should post on GitHub discussion seeking for the help of advanced usage. But what I was thinking is that this is a bug, because I clearly remember that I configured like this before, and they worked as expected when I was using VM. So I guess it could be a bug related to the distribution or file system (maybe I just accidentally configured correctly)

I will make a deeper investigation next time before I open a GitHub issue.

Thank you again for making this amazing project and for your detailed answer.
