Bisync - what happens when file is changed after diff check?

Feature
1

First of all, thanks for this wonderful tool.

I've been experimenting with the bisync feature and have one scenario that I cannot easily try out. Hope someone can help me understand this.
Suppose FileA is deleted in Path1, and unchanged in Path2. At the beginning of bisync, rclone should detect deletion and queue it for Path2. Before the deletion is performed, if I change FileA in Path2, will rclone still try to delete it? In general, how does rclone deal with changes after diff check?

Thanks!

This will fail the sync if copying from a local file system. In general rclone checks things at the start of the sync only. There are ways to control what happens on the local file system with

  --local-no-check-updated        Don't check to see if the files change during upload
