FR: Checksums to prevent uploads with corrupted files

[felixboehm]

Is there a plan to add checksums to iOS app for uploads?

Tell us what could be improved:

Maybe this is an approach:
checksumming.patch.txt

Some more context, please? A reference to the work on this for the desktop client, maybe?

Thanks.

There is lengthy discussions about: owncloud/client#3735 for example or owncloud/client#4375 .

The basic version is:

• On download you get a checksum in a http header from the server that you should validate
• On upload you set a checksum in a http header that the server verifies once the file made it to its final destination.

Nice to have feature, but honestly I would not put a high priority on it.
