This allows rclone to exit with a non-zero return code if no files are
transferred. This is useful when calling rclone as part of a workflow/script
pipeline as it allows the end user to stop processing if no files have been
transferred.
NB: Enabling this option will return in rclone exiting non-zero if there are no
transfers. Depending on how your're currently using rclone in your scripts,
this may break existing setups!
--files-from parses input files by ignoring comments starting with # and ;
and stripping whitespace from start and end of strings.
The --files-from-raw flag was added that reads every line from the file ignoring
comment characters and not stripping whitespace while maintaining
backwards compatibility.
Fixes#3762
This commit adds the `--track-renames-strategy` flag which allows the
user to choose the strategy for tracking renames when using the
`--track-renames` flag.
This can be "hash" or "modtime" or both currently.
This, when used with `--track-renames-strategy modtime` enables
support for tracking renames in encrypted remotes.

This gives you more control over how long rclone will run for, making
it easier to script backups, e.g. via cron. Once the `--max-duration`
time limit is reached, no new transfers will be initiated, but those
already in-flight will be allowed to complete.
Fixes#985
Before this change the expect/continue timeout was set to
--conntimeout which was 60s by default which is too long to wait.
This was noticed when using s3 with a proxy which apparently didn't
support expect / continue properly.
Set --expect-continue-timeout 0 to disable expect/continue.
Before this change --update would transfer any file which was newer
than the destination regardless of whether it had changed or not.
This is needlessly wasteful of bandwidth.
After this change --update will only transfer files if they are newer
**and** they are different (checked with checksum and size).
It's likely a mistake to use `--use-server-modtime` if you're not also using `--update`. It might even make sense to emit a warning in the code when doing this, but for now, I made it more clear in the docs.
I also clarified how `--use-server-modtime` can be useful in the `--update` section.
This was started by Fionera, finished off by Laura with fixes and more
docs from Nick.

This replaces the `sync.Pool` allocator with lib/pool. This
implements a pool of buffers of up to 64MB which can be re-used but is
flushed every 5 seconds.
If `--use-mmap` is set then rclone will use mmap for memory
allocations which is much better at returning memory to the OS.
