The push (and pull) are IMO the most important commands and they could use a bit more documentation:

  • States it only affects directory of the same name on Drive (can it be customized to have another name?)
  • Does it delete files on Drive in the directory if they've been removed locally since last push?
  • Does it follow symbolic links?
  • States that it doesn't keep ACLs

  1. Not sure what you mean by this.
  2. Delete Files - This is how the program works. You make changes either remotely or locally and you push/pull those changes from one to another. You should read the README. It has a lot of info in there.
  3. Sym Links - Working with symlinks #80
  4. I'm not sure if this is a question or just a general statement.

Open the README and just search for some keywords and you can probably find all your answers.

  1. I mean that given it delete files removed locally, it should state which folders it'll affect remotely, and I guess if I do drive push foo it'll will mirror local directory foo with Drive directory named foo without affecting other directories on drive, or?
  2. Push isn't clearly stating in README that it does delete files that don't exist locally but do exist on Drive. I'm not sure if that's the behavior as nothing is said about it clearly for the push operation.
  3. Yes, pretty neat. Worse mentioning in push section especially most Drive sync tools don't support it (yet).
  4. Statement that could be a notice in README (optional)
