Directory mod times are synced by default if the backend is capable
and directory metadata is synced if the --metadata flag is provided
and the backend is capable.
This updates the bisync golden tests also which were affected by
--dry-run setting of directory modtimes.
Fixes#6685
This adds an additional parameter to the creation of each flag. This
specifies one or more flag groups. This **must** be set for global
flags and **must not** be set for local flags.
This causes flags.md to be built with sections to aid comprehension
and it causes the documentation pages for each command (and the
`--help`) to be built showing the flags groups as specified in the
`groups` annotation on the command.

This replaces built-in os.MkdirAll with a patched version that stops the recursion
when reaching the volume part of the path. The original version would continue recursion,
and for extended length paths end up with \\? as the top-level directory, and the error
message would then be something like:
mkdir \\?: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
Switched from talking about "unchanged" files to "identical" files.
I found out the hard way that the rclone copy will overwrite newer files.
Looking at posts in the rclone forum, this is a common experience.
The docs for copy have referred to "unchanged" files.
This is ambiguous because it intuitively introduces a sense
of chronology, but chronology is irrelevant.
Rclone only "cares" about difference, not change.
- Change rclone/fs interfaces to accept context.Context
- Update interface implementations to use context.Context
- Change top level usage to propagate context to lover level functions
Context propagation is needed for stopping transfers and passing other
request-scoped values.
The --no-traverse flag was not implemented when the new sync routines
(using the march package) was implemented.
This re-implements --no-traverse in march by trying to find a match
for each object with NewObject rather than from a directory listing.
Before this change rclone would inefficiently and confusingly read all
the files in the source directory when copy or moving a single file.
This caused confusion for the users to see log messages about files
which weren't part of the sync.
After the change the copy and move commands use the new infrastructure
made for the copyto and moveto command for single file copy and move.
The purpose of this is to make it easier to maintain and eventually to
allow the rclone backends to be re-used in other projects without
having to use the rclone configuration system.
The new code layout is documented in CONTRIBUTING.
