Hello,
Using this command:
rclone dedupe gdrive:Photos --dedupe-mode rename
Gives an output like this:
2017/08/30 17:47:37 NOTICE: 2013/IMG_0875.jpg: Found 2 duplicates - deleting identical copies
Even though it did actually rename it. Perhaps could the output be more reflective like this:
2017/08/30 17:47:37 NOTICE: 2013/IMG_0875.jpg: Found 2 duplicates - renaming identical copies
rclone dedupe deletes identical files, that is files which have the same name, same size and same MD5SUM even in rename mode.
Hi NCW. I just mean in this instance it looks to be renaming the files, rather than deleting them. For the example above is actual created filename-1 and didn’t seem to delete anything.
I might just be misunderstanding it though.
Oh I see what you mean.
When rclone said Found 2 duplicates - deleting identical copies it then proceeded to delete all the identical copies of which there were none, then it did the renaming. So not 100% clear I agree!
