Is there still interest in this? A googledrive release is on the vague horizon. I'm making a pass through now, then will go back to gargle to push it out the door, then will return here.

Yes! I'm still interested to contribute, thanks for the follow up! I do have a draft of this that I think is nearly complete. Do you have some deadlines that I should aim for?

Not really. This will be an article, so probably pkgdown only. So it's really not something that has to be driven by CRAN release rhythms. I was mostly interested in knowing whether to leave this open or not.

This sounds very valuable. Is the draft available for feedback? Thanks!

And how might this be related to https://github.com/larsks/gitdriver?

This is my first expose to that. But perhaps its relevant for developing the article and, long-term, determining whether some similar functionality would be useful in googledrive more properly.

@benmarwick just an FYI that you may want to use a document with enough revisions that it requires pagination. I've been running into pagination errors with the revision endpoint.
