rclone touch ​

Create new file or change file modification time.

Synopsis ​

Set the modification time on file(s) as specified by remote:path to have the current time.

If remote:path does not exist then a zero sized file will be created, unless --no-create or --recursive is provided.

If --recursive is used then recursively sets the modification time on all existing files that is found under the path. Filters are supported, and you can test with the --dry-run or the --interactive/-i flag.

If --timestamp is used then sets the modification time to that time instead of the current time. Times may be specified as one of:

  • 'YYMMDD' - e.g. 17.10.30
  • 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS' - e.g. 2006-01-02T15:04:05
  • 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.SSS' - e.g. 2006-01-02T15:04:05.123456789

Note that value of --timestamp is in UTC. If you want local time then add the --localtime flag.

      --localtime          Use localtime for timestamp, not UTC
  -C, --no-create          Do not create the file if it does not exist (implied with --recursive)
  -R, --recursive          Recursively touch all files
  -t, --timestamp string   Use specified time instead of the current time of day

Options shared with other commands are described next. See the global flags page for global options not listed here.

Important Options ​

  -v, --verbose count   Print lots more stuff (repeat for more)
