# rclone moveto
|
|
|
|
Move file or directory from source to dest.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
|
|
If source:path is a file or directory then it moves it to a file or
|
|
directory named dest:path.
|
|
|
|
This can be used to rename files or upload single files to other than
|
|
their existing name. If the source is a directory then it acts exactly
|
|
like the move command.
|
|
|
|
So
|
|
|
|
rclone moveto 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
|
|
move it to dst, overwriting an existing file if it exists
|
|
if src is directory
|
|
move it to dst, overwriting existing files if they exist
|
|
see move command for full details
|
|
|
|
This doesn't transfer files that are identical on src and dst, testing
|
|
by size and modification time or MD5SUM. src will be deleted on
|
|
successful transfer.
|
|
|
|
**Important**: Since this can cause data loss, test first with the
|
|
`--dry-run` or the `--interactive`/`-i` flag.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: Use the `-P`/`--progress` flag to view real-time transfer statistics.
