Does insync do partial/delta uploads?

#1

I was looking around the site for an answer to this but couldn’t find anything, so I thought I’d ask here.

If I have a large file on my google drive that is synced using insync and I change a small part of it, is the entire file resynced or just the part that changed?

This is on fedora 27 if it matters.

Hi @canine, we don’t do partial/delta uploads. It will resync your file after the changes have been saved.

Unless there’s some new API that I’m not aware of, I don’t think it’s possible to do delta sync with Google Drive at all, regardless of the client.
