The manpage's 'Synopsis' provides a fast reference.

We'll assume a folder in Google Drive called 'test', and local folder called 'foo'.

Generate a config file with:

rclone config

Look at the contents of Google Drive:

rclone ls gd:/

If rclone loses authorization:

rclone authorization

List only directories:

rclone lsf -dirs-only google:/

Mount the remote location on /tmp/google with:

rclone mount google /tmp/google

Copy the contents of 'foo' to 'test'.

rclone copy foo/ google:test

Sync contents of foo and test with a progress bar (will delete Google items):

rclone sync foo google:test -P

Remove all duplicates

rclone dedupe google:test

Delete contets of a remote file:

rclone delete n:test

Or delete the folder and contents as well:

rclone purge n:test

Copy to and from with:

rclone copyto google:test foo

or

rclone copyto foo google:test
