Sometimes we don't have the guarantee that a particular seed index is
always valid.
For example if a seed index is calculated and used in two different
occasions, it might happen that in the meantime some of the seed files
got corrupted or that they simply changed (if the seed is a writable
location).
One workaroud is to manually launch
verify-index
and then regeneratethe index if that check fails. However this involves additional steps
and is potentially slower because we need to verify the entire seed
before running the
extract
command.Instead with the new option "--regenerate-invalid-seeds", Desync will
automatically regenerate the seed index if the validation step fails.
