In f544234 we removed the global flags from each command as it was
making each page very big and causing 1000s of lines of duplication in
the man page.
This change adds a new flags page with all the global flags on and
links each command page to it.
Fixes #3273

## rclone delete
|
|
|
|
Remove the contents of path.
|
|
|
|
### Synopsis
|
|
|
|
|
|
Remove the files in path. Unlike `purge` it obeys include/exclude
|
|
filters so can be used to selectively delete files.
|
|
|
|
`rclone delete` only deletes objects but leaves the directory structure
|
|
alone. If you want to delete a directory and all of its contents use
|
|
`rclone purge`
|
|
|
|
Eg delete all files bigger than 100MBytes
|
|
|
|
Check what would be deleted first (use either)
|
|
|
|
rclone --min-size 100M lsl remote:path
|
|
rclone --dry-run --min-size 100M delete remote:path
|
|
|
|
Then delete
|
|
|
|
rclone --min-size 100M delete remote:path
|
|
|
|
That reads "delete everything with a minimum size of 100 MB", hence
|
|
delete all files bigger than 100MBytes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
rclone delete remote:path [flags]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Options
