rclone: Copy file or directory from local source to remote destination.

rclone

$ rclone copy ${path-to-source_file_or_directory} ${remote_name}:${path-to-destination_directory}

try on your machine

This command is using the "rclone" tool to copy files or directories from a local source to a remote location using a specific remote name.

Let's break it down:

rclone: This is the command-line tool being used in this case. It is used for syncing files and directories between different cloud storage providers.
copy: This is the action/command being performed with rclone. It specifies that files or directories need to be copied.
${path-to-source_file_or_directory}: This is the placeholder for the path to the source file or directory on your local system. You need to replace this placeholder with the actual path to the source file or directory that you want to copy.
${remote_name}:${path-to-destination_directory}: This is the placeholder for the remote name and destination directory. The remote name is typically a configuration name for a remote storage provider, such as "google_drive" for Google Drive or "s3" for Amazon S3. Replace the ${remote_name} placeholder with the appropriate remote name for your provider. The ${path-to-destination_directory} placeholder should be replaced with the desired destination directory path on the remote storage provider.

By combining these components and providing the actual paths and names specific to your use case, the command will copy the specified file or directory from the local system to the desired location on the remote storage provider.
