When syncing to a datastore that is marked as "This is a remote server" an error is generated stating:

The current user does not have write permissions in the directory config://.

Expected behaviour

It is expected that the module would check to see if the datastore was read only due to being remote, and skip any step that required writing to a datastore.

I can confirm this with a site hosted on Pantheon. The config directory on dev has write permissions but it doesn't on test or live, so synchronizing in those environments creates the error message and also floods the database log with that message, too.

That patch seems to work. It prevents the flood of error messages during synchronization.
