Saves sync actually syncs all the files within the "ScummVM/Saves" remote directory and "Saved games" local directory (the savespath, that is). Directories are considered flat, so subdirectories are not synced (if there are any). A special "timestamps" local file is used to determine which files should be synced. It contains the remote "modified at" timestamps for each file. If remote file has a newer timestamp or is not listed, it's being downloaded. If local file has a newer timestamp or is not listed (but exists), it's being uploaded. We download files first, upload second. Timestamps are updated after each downloaded and uploaded file, so if sync is interrupted, next sync will continue from the right state.
