# rclone copyto
|
|
|
|
Copy files from source to dest, skipping identical files.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
|
|
If source:path is a file or directory then it copies it to a file or
|
|
directory named dest:path.
|
|
|
|
This can be used to upload single files to other than their current
|
|
name. If the source is a directory then it acts exactly like the
|
|
[copy](/commands/rclone_copy/) command.
|
|
|
|
So
|
|
|
|
rclone copyto src dst
|
|
|
|
where src and dst are rclone paths, either remote:path or
|
|
/path/to/local or C:\windows\path\if\on\windows.
|
|
|
|
This will:
|
|
|
|
if src is file
|
|
copy it to dst, overwriting an existing file if it exists
|
|
if src is directory
|
|
copy it to dst, overwriting existing files if they exist
|
|
see copy command for full details
|
|
|
|
This doesn't transfer files that are identical on src and dst, testing
|
|
by size and modification time or MD5SUM. It doesn't delete files from
|
|
the destination.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: Use the `-P`/`--progress` flag to view real-time transfer statistics
