[jira] [Created] (SYNCOPE-771) Rename Sync to Pull

Francesco Chicchiriccò created SYNCOPE-771:
----------------------------------------------

             Summary: Rename Sync to Pull
                 Key: SYNCOPE-771
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-771
             Project: Syncope
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Francesco Chicchiriccò
             Fix For: 2.0.0


Rename all Sync* things (throughout the whole system) to Pull, for a couple of reasons:

 # the word "synchronization" evokes some kind of bidirectional flow, while instead we intend pulling users, groups and any objects from external resources by relying on either {{search()}} or {{sync()}} ConnId operations
 # we are already using "push" for the opposite operation

Moreover, it would be good, once changed all references, to include a "synchronization use case" in the documentation from SYNCOPE-700, which involves creating a pull task with assign matching request so that, for example, users pulled from LDAP will also be automatically assigned the LDAP resource.
