The EOS rclone tool is an EOS-integrated file replication and synchronization utility that provides one-way copy and bi-directional sync operations between directories within EOS or across EOS-accessible endpoints. It supports dry-run execution, selective updates, verbosity control, and optional inclusion of EOS-specific semantics such as atomic files, versioned files, and hidden entries. Synchronization decisions are based on file modification times, enabling efficient incremental transfers. The tool is designed for controlled data propagation, validation, and migration workflows within EOS environments while offering predictable, script-friendly behavior.
