The slightly good news is that Canary releases (with an Experimental coming next) have
Description:
Remote Synchronization Tool
This tool synchronizes two remote backends. The tool assumes that the intent is
to have the destination match the source.
If the destination has files that are not in the source, they will be deleted
(or renamed if the retention option is set).
If the destination has files that are also present in the source, but the files
differ in size, or if the source files have a newer (more recent) timestamp,
the destination files will be overwritten by the source files. Given that some
backends do not allow for metadata or timestamp modification, and that the tool
is run after backup, the destination files should always have a timestamp that
is newer (or the same if run promptly) compared to the source files.
If the force option is set, the destination will be overwritten by the source,
regardless of the state of the files. It will also skip the initial comparison,
and delete (or rename) all files in the destination.
If the verify option is set, the files will be downloaded and compared after
uploading to ensure that the files are correct. Files that already exist in the
destination will be verified before being overwritten (if they seemingly match).
Usage:
Duplicati.CommandLine.SyncTool <backend_src> <backend_dst> [options]
Arguments:
<backend_src> The source backend string
<backend_dst> The destination backend string
Options:
-y, --confirm, --yes Automatically confirm the operation [default:
False]
-d, --dry-run Do not actually write or delete files. If not set
here, the global options will be checked [default:
False]
--dst-options <dst-options> Options for the destination backend. Each option
is a key-value pair separated by an equals sign,
e.g. --dst-options key1=value1 key2=value2
[default: empty] []
-f, --force Force the synchronization [default: False]
--global-options <global-options> Global options all backends. May be overridden by
backend specific options (src-options,
dst-options). Each option is a key-value pair
separated by an equals sign, e.g. --global-options
key1=value1 key2=value2 [default: empty] []
--log-file <log-file> The log file to write to. If not set here, global
options will be checked [default: ""] []
--log-level <log-level> The log level to use. If not set here, global
options will be checked [default: Information]
--parse-arguments-only Only parse the arguments and then exit [default:
False]
--progress Print progress to STDOUT [default: False]
--retention Toggles whether to keep old files. Any deletes
will be renames instead [default: False]
--retry <retry> Number of times to retry on errors [default: 3]
--src-options <src-options> Options for the source backend. Each option is a
key-value pair separated by an equals sign, e.g.
--src-options key1=value1 key2=value2 [default:
empty] []
--verify-contents Verify the contents of the files to decide whether
the pre-existing destination files should be
overwritten [default: False]
--verify-get-after-put Verify the files after uploading them to ensure
that they were uploaded correctly [default: False]
--version Show version information
-?, -h, --help Show help and usage information
which should be able to reupload your files with proper ownership info for Duplicati to use.
There was talk of more documentation for the tool (maybe some uses), but it’s not out yet.
EDIT 1:
Windows name for this is Duplicati.CommandLine.SyncTool.exe. Linux name is different.
