New cases for what 3.6.0 adds: - copy_file_range over several calls, into the middle of a file, past its end, at the source's end, and from a file whose writes are not released yet; on a live mount also read back from Drive. - pdfs copy of a tree and of a file beside itself, read back as listed and after a refresh, with nothing queued; refused while a file has writes Drive lacks, and never the version before a save (B256). - pdfs du counts every item below a folder, trash included. - pdfs public-link update keeps the URL and the options it was not asked to change, and refuses a link id that is not the folder's. - In a sync folder of their own: Sync From Scratch changes nothing that already matched, and an emptied mirror folder still switches to on-demand with every file intact on Drive (B255). docs/TESTING.md gains a checklist for the new screens in the app. The CHANGELOG moves these into 3.6.0, which is not tagged yet.
Proton Drive for Linux documentation
Proton Drive for Linux is an unofficial Proton Drive client for the Linux desktop. Your Drive appears as a folder that downloads files when you open them, local folders are backed up and kept in sync, and a GTK app with a tray icon and a search launcher covers Photos, sharing and more. A command-line client does all of it from a terminal.
These pages are also published as the
