# rclone move
|
|
|
|
Move files from source to dest.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
|
|
Moves the contents of the source directory to the destination
|
|
directory. Rclone will error if the source and destination overlap and
|
|
the remote does not support a server side directory move operation.
|
|
|
|
If no filters are in use and if possible this will server side move
|
|
`source:path` into `dest:path`. After this `source:path` will no
|
|
longer exist.
|
|
|
|
Otherwise for each file in `source:path` selected by the filters (if
|
|
any) this will move it into `dest:path`. If possible a server side
|
|
move will be used, otherwise it will copy it (server side if possible)
|
|
into `dest:path` then delete the original (if no errors on copy) in
|
|
`source:path`.
|
|
|
|
If you want to delete empty source directories after move, use the --delete-empty-src-dirs flag.
|
|
|
|
See the [--no-traverse](/docs/#no-traverse) option for controlling
|
|
whether rclone lists the destination directory or not. Supplying this
|
|
option when moving a small number of files into a large destination
|
|
can speed transfers up greatly.
|
|
|
|
**Important**: Since this can cause data loss, test first with the
|
|
--dry-run flag.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: Use the `-P`/`--progress` flag to view real-time transfer statistics.
