Description
When using the Auto-Upload feature without the Most Compatible option the HEIC pictures are uploaded, but any sidecar information (.AAE file) is not uploaded.
Expected behaviour
Include the sidecar information in the fileset of the upload. Same name + AAE extension.
Actual behaviour
The sidecar file is not included in the upload.
Steps to reproduce
Make a Camera shot using the "Portrait" mode. The sidecar will have information on the filter applied.
