Yes, at the beginning I was also thinking if initial sync is necessary, 
but there was nothing in docs about it, something started replicating 
and I simply assumed it does initial resync. I'll try it this evening. :)

is -s option called sieve mode but it needs to specify which users' 
files are to replicate and there is written that it is mostly for debugging.
