Description

Copy files missing AND folders from one Google Drive (web) folder to another

Usage

drive_copy_missing_files(
  from_dir,
  to_dir,
  ignore = c(".git", ".github", ".Rproj.user", ".RData", ".Rhistory"),
  prompt_user = TRUE,
  try_harder = TRUE,
  share_anyone = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

from_dir	Source directory path
to_dir	What's the path to the new (clone) directory? Must be a string path for drive_find_path() or a dribble, e.g. from googledrive::drive_find() e.g. "Edu/Lessons/GeneticRescue_sci"
ignore	Folders to ignore; default= c(".git", ".github", ".Rproj.user",".RData",".Rhistory")
prompt_user	prompt user to continue? default=T; set to F for recursive calls
try_harder	do you want copy functions to try again if copying fails? Passed to catch_err(); default=T
share_anyone	do you want copied files to be viewable by anyone with the link? Default=FALSE
...	Pass other parameters to googledrive::drive_cp()

Details

Helps with a partial project clone (i.e. if not all files are backed up on GitHub, but they are on GDrive). Makes use of our function drive_cp_dir() to copy folders.

Value

Dribble of the cloned folder
