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 rcat
|
|
|
|
Copies standard input to file on remote.
|
|
|
|
### Synopsis
|
|
|
|
|
|
rclone rcat reads from standard input (stdin) and copies it to a
|
|
single remote file.
|
|
|
|
echo "hello world" | rclone rcat remote:path/to/file
|
|
ffmpeg - | rclone rcat remote:path/to/file
|
|
|
|
If the remote file already exists, it will be overwritten.
|
|
|
|
rcat will try to upload small files in a single request, which is
|
|
usually more efficient than the streaming/chunked upload endpoints,
|
|
which use multiple requests. Exact behaviour depends on the remote.
|
|
What is considered a small file may be set through
|
|
`--streaming-upload-cutoff`. Uploading only starts after
|
|
the cutoff is reached or if the file ends before that. The data
|
|
must fit into RAM. The cutoff needs to be small enough to adhere
|
|
the limits of your remote, please see there. Generally speaking,
|
|
setting this cutoff too high will decrease your performance.
|
|
|
|
Note that the upload can also not be retried because the data is
|
|
not kept around until the upload succeeds. If you need to transfer
|
|
a lot of data, you're better off caching locally and then
|
|
`rclone move` it to the destination.
|
|
|

|
|
