Potential data loss of Google file formats

Open timmornYE opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

Drive is not syncing Google file formats. This can lead to data loss when syncing recursively. Reproduce:

  1. Create a subfolder in drive e.g. /folder1/folder2/folder3
  2. Create a Google Document in /folder1/folder2/folder3 and put a pdf in there
  3. Create a folder /folder1/folder4 in drive
  4. Pull /folder1 recursively to your disk
  5. Move "folder3" to "folder4" on your disk
  6. Push /folder1 to Drive
  7. The Google Document goes to trash
