+Controls whether files are sent to the trash or deleted
+permanently. Defaults to false, namely sending files to the trash.
+Use `--jottacloud-hard-delete=true` to delete files permanently instead.

 Jottacloud exhibits some inconsistent behaviours regarding deleted files and folders which may cause Copy, Move and DirMove operations to previously deleted paths to fail. Emptying the trash should help in such cases.
