## Synopsis
Use cobra autogenerated docs * put the most up to date docs into the code * generate command docs using rclone gendocs * put command docs into own directory * remake them into MANUAL.md
2016-08-04 04:36:28 +08:00
Version v1.57.0
2021-11-01 23:42:05 +08:00
Copy the source to the destination. Does not transfer files that are
identical on source and destination, testing by size and modification
Version v1.59.0
2022-07-10 01:08:20 +08:00
time or MD5SUM. Doesn't delete files from the destination. If you
want to also delete files from destination, to make it match source,
use the [sync](/commands/rclone_sync/) command instead.
Use cobra autogenerated docs * put the most up to date docs into the code * generate command docs using rclone gendocs * put command docs into own directory * remake them into MANUAL.md
2016-08-04 04:36:28 +08:00
Version v1.57.0
2021-11-01 23:42:05 +08:00
Note that it is always the contents of the directory that is synced,
Version v1.59.0
2022-07-10 01:08:20 +08:00
not the directory itself. So when source:path is a directory, it's the
Version v1.57.0
2021-11-01 23:42:05 +08:00
contents of source:path that are copied, not the directory name and
contents.

2016-08-04 04:36:28 +08:00
Version v1.59.0
2022-07-10 01:08:20 +08:00
To copy single files, use the [copyto](/commands/rclone_copyto/)
command instead.
Version v1.57.0
2021-11-01 23:42:05 +08:00
If dest:path doesn't exist, it is created and the source:path contents
go there.
For example

Version v1.57.0
2021-11-01 23:42:05 +08:00
Let's say there are two files in sourcepath

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.
Version v1.46
2019-02-09 18:42:57 +08:00
See the [--no-traverse](/docs/#no-traverse) option for controlling
whether rclone lists the destination directory or not. Supplying this
option when copying a small number of files into a large destination
can speed transfers up greatly.
For example, if you have many files in /path/to/src but only a few of
docs: add description to commands and index page

them change every day, you can copy all the files which have changed
recently very efficiently like this:

Version v1.53.0
2020-09-02 23:59:04 +08:00
**Note**: Use the `-P`/`--progress` flag to view real-time transfer statistics.
**Note**: Use the `--dry-run` or the `--interactive`/`-i` flag to test without copying anything.

docs: add a new page with global flags and link to it from the command docs 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
2019-06-20 23:18:02 +08:00
See the [global flags page](/flags/) for global options not listed here.
