# rclone touch
|
|
|
|
Create new file or change file modification time.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
|
|
Set the modification time on file(s) as specified by remote:path to
|
|
have the current time.
|
|
|
|
If remote:path does not exist then a zero sized file will be created,
|
|
unless `--no-create` or `--recursive` is provided.
|
|
|
|
If `--recursive` is used then recursively sets the modification
|
|
time on all existing files that is found under the path. Filters are supported,
|
|
and you can test with the `--dry-run` or the `--interactive`/`-i` flag.
|
|
|
|
If `--timestamp` is used then sets the modification time to that
|
|
time instead of the current time. Times may be specified as one of:
|
|
|
|
- 'YYMMDD' - e.g. 17.10.30
|
|
- 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS' - e.g. 2006-01-02T15:04:05
|
|
- 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.SSS' - e.g. 2006-01-02T15:04:05.123456789
|
|
|
|
Note that value of `--timestamp` is in UTC. If you want local time
|
|
then add the `--localtime` flag.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
rclone touch remote:path [flags]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
