I seem to have solved my problem. For the sake of completion and for anyone else running into this problem I'll fill in the template and provide the solution.
What is the problem you are having with rclone?
Rclone doesn't let me move files from DirectoryA to DirectoryA/SubDirectoryA
What is your rclone version (output from rclone version )
rclone v1.52.2
- os/arch: linux/amd64
- go version: go1.14.4
Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)
Ubuntu Server 20.04
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
Google Drive
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp )
See OP.
The rclone config contents with secrets removed.
Not relevant in my case
A log from the command with the -vv flag
See OP.
Okay, so my solution is quite simple. I had to use different remotes for the same drive. Luckely I had a second remote configured so I had to use this:
user@server:~$ rclone move decrypted:"series/Grey's Anatomy/" decrypted2:"series/Grey's Anatomy/Season 14/" --drive-server-side-across-configs=true --include "*S14*" -v
