Skip upload if duplicate is present

Is it possible to add a flag during rclone copy to skip uploads of folders that have possible duplicates in the destination?

it shouldn't copy files if they are the same as on the destination, it would only copy them if the destination is different.

Oh so it won't overwrite?

perhaps rclone sync
https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_sync/

the documentation says that copy compares checksums and if they are the same, wont copy. never tested.

the documentation is correct but confusing.

rclone copy
copies source to dest if there is a difference in size or mod-time.


rclone copy --checksum
copies source to dest if there is a difference in size or checksum.
rclone will compare size and if different, then copy.
if size is the same, then compare using checksum
