There was a problem hiding this comment.
Note: The addition of gog drive download --format md ... to the README is for documentation completeness. I’ve included it here so that the Markdown import/export flows are documented together in the same section.
(The download as md feature was originally added in #282)
Map .md to Google Doc conversion with --convert, strip leading ---/--- frontmatter before upload (opt out with --keep-frontmatter), and extend tests for convert MIME and frontmatter handling.
