    }
}.dev;

Usage

  Only the updated files since last push will be pushed. If it is the first push, all files will be pushed.
  (if you change the option published to false in config.json, the default gulp task will not publish files)

gulp 

• B) Watch changes and push immediately each file you update

gulp watch

• C) Same as A) with publish (if you change the option published to false in config.json, the default gulp task will not publish files)

gulp publish

• D) Publish all files to SharePoint regardless of the modification dates

gulp publish-all

• E) If you want to retrieve all items from the folders defined in "remoteFoldersToGet" :
