+## Sync Semantics
 
 Each mirror group is treated as a set of equivalent namespaces. Repositories are matched by repository name across all endpoints.
 
 Set `sync_visibility = "all"`, `"private"`, or `"public"` on a mirror group to choose which repository visibility is included in that group. When `refray` creates a missing repository, it mirrors the visibility of the existing repository it is syncing from; `visibility` is only a fallback when no source visibility is available.
 
-Set `repo_whitelist = "..."` and/or `repo_blacklist = "..."` on a mirror group to filter repository names with regular expressions. Omit `repo_whitelist` to include all repository names, and blacklist matches are excluded after whitelist matches. These name filters are independent from `sync_visibility`; both must match for a repository to be synced.

 When a previously opened conflict pull request is merged, the next sync sees the merged branch as the winning tip, pushes it to the other endpoints, and closes stale `refray/conflicts/...` pull requests for that branch.
 
-Repository and branch deletion are propagated only when it is safe to infer intent, and `refray` writes local backup refs and bundle files under the work-dir `backups/` directory before propagating those deletions. If a repository existed on every endpoint in the previous successful sync, then disappears from one endpoint while the remaining endpoints still have the previous synced refs, `refray` deletes it from the remaining endpoints instead of recreating it when `delete_missing = true`. If `delete_missing = false`, that missing repository is not treated as a deletion and normal missing-repository handling applies. If the repository was deleted everywhere, `refray` removes its saved sync state after creating a local backup from the mirror cache. If the repository was deleted on one endpoint but changed elsewhere, it is treated as a conflict and skipped.
