Doesn't transfer unchanged files, testing by size and modification time or MD5SUM. Doesn't delete files from the destination. Note that it is always the contents of the directory that is synced, not the directory so when source:path is a directory, it's the contents of source:path that are copied, not the directory name and contents. If dest:path doesn't exist, it is created and the source:path contents go there. For example rclone copy source:sourcepath dest:destpath Let's say there are two files in sourcepath sourcepath/one.txt sourcepath/two.txt This copies them to destpath/one.txt destpath/two.txt Not to destpath/sourcepath/one.txt destpath/sourcepath/two.txt If you are familiar with ` + "`rsync`" + `, rclone always works as if you had written a trailing / - meaning "copy the contents of this directory". This applies to all commands and whether you are talking about the source or destination. `, Run: func(command *cobra.Command, args []string) { cmd.CheckArgs(2, 2, command, args) fsrc, fdst := cmd.NewFsSrcDst(args) cmd.Run(true, true, command, func() error { return sync.CopyDir(fdst, fsrc) }) }, }
