Rclone is single executable (rclone
, or rclone.exe
on Windows) that you can
simply download as a zip archive and extract into a location of your choosing.
See the install documentation for more details.

You can also find a mirror of the downloads on GitHub.
See also Android builds. These are built as part of the official release, but haven't been adopted as first class builds yet.
See the release signing docs for how to verify signatures on the release.
To install rclone on Linux/macOS/BSD systems, run:
sudo -v ; curl https://rclone.org/install.sh | sudo bash
For beta installation, run:
sudo -v ; curl https://rclone.org/install.sh | sudo bash -s beta
Note that this script checks the version of rclone installed first and won't re-download if not needed.
Beta releases are generated from each commit to master. Note these are named like
{Version Tag}.beta.{Commit Number}.{Git Commit Hash}
e.g.
v1.53.0-beta.4677.b657a2204
The Version Tag
is the version that the beta release will become
when it is released. You can match the Git Commit Hash
up with the
git log. The most
recent release will have the largest Version Tag
and Commit Number
and will normally be at the end of the list.
Some beta releases may have a branch name also:
{Version Tag}-beta.{Commit Number}.{Git Commit Hash}.{Branch Name}
e.g.
v1.53.0-beta.4677.b657a2204.semver
The presence of Branch Name
indicates that this is a feature under
development which will at some point be merged into the normal betas
and then into a normal release.
The beta releases haven't been through the full integration test suite like the releases. However it is useful to try the latest beta before reporting an issue.
Note that rclone.org is only updated on releases - to see the documentation for the latest beta go to tip.rclone.org.
If you would like to download the current version (maybe from a script) from a URL which doesn't change then you can use these links.
