Currently rclone check supports matching two file trees by sizes and hashes. This change adds support for SUM files produced by GNU utilities like sha1sum. Fixes #1005 Note: checksum by default checks, hashsum by default prints sums. New flag is named "--checkfile" but carries hash name. Summary of introduced command forms: ``` rclone check sums.sha1 remote:path --checkfile sha1 rclone checksum sha1 sums.sha1 remote:path rclone hashsum sha1 remote:path --checkfile sums.sha1 rclone sha1sum remote:path --checkfile sums.sha1 rclone md5sum remote:path --checkfile sums.md5 ```

rclone check
Checks the files in the source and destination match.
Synopsis
Checks the files in the source and destination match. It compares sizes and hashes (MD5 or SHA1) and logs a report of files which don't match. It doesn't alter the source or destination.
If you supply the --size-only
flag, it will only compare the sizes not
the hashes as well. Use this for a quick check.
If you supply the --download
flag, it will download the data from
both remotes and check them against each other on the fly. This can
be useful for remotes that don't support hashes or if you really want
to check all the data.
If you supply the --checkfile HASH
flag with a valid hash name,
the source:path
must point to a text file in the SUM format.
If you supply the --one-way
flag, it will only check that files in
the source match the files in the destination, not the other way
around. This means that extra files in the destination that are not in
the source will not be detected.
The --differ
, --missing-on-dst
, --missing-on-src
, --match
and --error
flags write paths, one per line, to the file name (or
stdout if it is -
) supplied. What they write is described in the
help below. For example --differ
will write all paths which are
present on both the source and destination but different.
The --combined
flag will write a file (or stdout) which contains all
file paths with a symbol and then a space and then the path to tell
you what happened to it. These are reminiscent of diff files.
= path
means path was found in source and destination and was identical- path
means path was missing on the source, so only in the destination+ path
means path was missing on the destination, so only in the source* path
means path was present in source and destination but different.! path
means there was an error reading or hashing the source or dest.
rclone check source:path dest:path [flags]
Options
-C, --checkfile string Treat source:path as a SUM file with hashes of given type
--combined string Make a combined report of changes to this file
--differ string Report all non-matching files to this file
--download Check by downloading rather than with hash.
--error string Report all files with errors (hashing or reading) to this file
-h, --help help for check
--match string Report all matching files to this file
--missing-on-dst string Report all files missing from the destination to this file
--missing-on-src string Report all files missing from the source to this file
--one-way Check one way only, source files must exist on remote
