Gdrive: Please add a rename function

Created on 13 Nov 2016  路  4Comments  路  Source: prasmussen/gdrive

I use gdrive daily and it is working very well. Thank you!

However, I'm really missing a (remote) rename function. Could you please consider to add this?
The update function isn't really the same.

As a workaround, I currently use https://github.com/odeke-em/drive only for the renaming. It is also written in Go so maybe it can be used as an example?

Thank you

It would be great if this 'rename' function were included in a regular gdrive release.

Well thank you!!
I downloaded your commit sha and with some fiddling to get it compiled, it works perfectly.

Looks like you could do this with gdrive update?

But not sure how to structure the command?

Update command needs a whole file re-upload, But what if you're just looking to rename the file on google drive? What good is this command line utility if I have to go to GUI on the web to do renaming ?
