Use: "delete remote:path",
Short: `Remove the files in path.`,
Long: `
Remove the files in path. Unlike ` + "`" + `purge` + "`" + ` it obeys include/exclude
filters so can be used to selectively delete files.
` + "`rclone delete`" + ` only deletes files but leaves the directory structure
alone. If you want to delete a directory and all of its contents use
the ` + "`purge`" + ` command.
If you supply the --rmdirs flag, it will remove all empty directories along with it.
You can also use the separate command ` + "`rmdir`" + ` or ` + "`rmdirs`" + ` to
delete empty directories only.
For example, to delete all files bigger than 100MBytes, you may first want to check what
would be deleted (use either):
rclone --min-size 100M lsl remote:path
rclone --dry-run --min-size 100M delete remote:path
Then proceed with the actual 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.
**Important**: Since this can cause data loss, test first with the
` + "`--dry-run` or the `--interactive`/`-i`" + ` flag.
