I’ve attached a picture of the process when paused, so you can see my initial command and its current status. However, Google Photos can’t always detect near duplicates and will upload them. The feature is supposed to work even with files that are named differently and that are located in different folders. Perhaps a linked point: on this large upload, each time it nears completion, the number of files to upload increases significantly again, and the log appears to go back over folders it has previously dealt with and upload specific images I can verify are already on the Google platform. Google Photos has a feature that recognizes duplicate images and doesn’t save them. This makes me nervous about re-running the copy command once this process is complete (to capture a small number of failures), because I don’t particularly want to have hundreds of GB pointlessly reuploded. Any filtering of the duplicate would appear to be happening post-upload on Google’s side. But as the very large upload has continued, I’m seeing files be uploaded that I know were previously uploaded. Upon re-running the copy function (after it was interrupted first time round), at first it seemed that this was happening (the log was producing high number of ‘Checks’ - I assumed this was confirmation of an already uploaded file). What does rclone do when a duplicate photo already exists on Google Photos (which itself has previously been uploaded by rclone)? My understanding of the copy function had been that rclone would scan the destination and where a duplicate exists, it would skip uploading the photo.

If they have the same type, size, and content, most likely they are duplicates. It’s working very well and the vast majority has uploaded successfully but there’s a few behaviours which I’m confused about for which I haven’t been able to find answers. If you want to find duplicate pictures, it is handy to select Tiles in the view option and sort the items by Size to search for the identical files. Finding duplicates in Google Photos can be a time-consuming and frustrating task, but with the Remove duplicates option, the process can be much easier. ![]() I’m using rclone on my Raspberry Pi to get a very large photo library on my WD M圜loud NAS (mapped through SMB) onto Google Photos.
