Installation of Package Syncing Leads to Removal of Previous Installed Packages?

[jmhow119]

I appreciate having a higher level tool for package syncing that can be used with google drive. It avoids some of the privacy issues that sometimes arise. Package syncing is currently working correctly, however their was a hiccup right after I installed - all of my previous installed packages disappeared. There is a small chance that this was triggered by an unrelated event, however I want to say that package syncing was the root of the problem. Fortunately I only had 5 packages that I using at the time and now they are all reinstalled and synced across my machines. I just wanted to let you know and ask whether this had happened with other users and if you had any thoughts.

Same thing happened here. I guess I should have known better than to trust random plugins to handle my settings. Luckily I always backup.

Should be written in the README, even if it's almost obvious.
