Install
-------
Rclone is a Go program and comes as a single binary file.
[Download](/downloads/) the relevant binary.
Or alternatively if you have Go 1.5+ installed use
go get github.com/ncw/rclone
and this will build the binary in `$GOPATH/bin`. If you have built
rclone before then you will want to update its dependencies first with
this
go get -u -v github.com/ncw/rclone/...
See the [Usage section](/docs/) of the docs for how to use rclone, or
run `rclone -h`.
