Disable destination checks for copy and sync command #3616
Comments
Thanks for making this issue. Do you want to have a go at implementing it? |
I believe that naming this flag |
I see what you mean. The major use of this flag would be to reduce checks at the expense of transfers, so how about --force-transfer? |
I have in mind right that plus the ongoing chunker effort and |
I made a prototype of this here I decided to give the flag a long name https://beta.rclone.org/branch/v1.49.5-236-gc7a2db45-fix-3616-force-beta/ (uploaded in 15-30 mins) Here is the user docs. Let me know what you think --no-check-destThe This means that:
This flag is useful to minimise the transactions if you know that none This is a specialized flag which should be ignored by most users! |
@manishgupta24 - did you get a chance to try the beta above with |
@ncw. I will check it today and will post the results. Thanks |
I updated the beta to include the latest changes https://beta.rclone.org/branch/v1.49.5-245-gbb561583-fix-3616-force-beta/ (uploaded in 15-30 mins) I note that this includes af05e29 which fixes --files-from which I think you were having a problem with so that without the --no-check-dest flag might be enough to solve your problem. |
Hi, +1 for this feature. Thanks! Can't wait to see it in one of the main release versions. |
@ciaw - I'm awaiting feedback from user testing - fancy giving this a go and reporting back? I rebased the patch on master. https://beta.rclone.org/branch/v1.50.2-085-g96d0e9a5-fix-3616-force-beta/ (uploaded in 15-30 mins) |
I've used this build to upload around 2000 files and haven't encountered any errors. Smaller files upload dramatically faster in congested directories. |
Thanks for testing. I've merged this to master now which means it will be in the latest beta in 15-30 mins and released in v1.51 |
What is your current rclone version (output from
rclone version
)?1.49.3
What problem are you are trying to solve?
Copy the files to the destination without performing any checks.
How do you think rclone should be changed to solve that?
Add a new flag --no-check which will skip all the destination checks before copying the file.
