+```
+:Rclone [<command>] [<remote>] [options]
+
+Arguments:
+command Command to run: [copy, copyFile, sync]
+remote Name of the remote section defined in rclone.conf
+ If only one remote is specified that remote is used by default.
+ Otherwise the remote with "vim_rclone_default = true" is used.
+
+Options:
+--dry-run Print command to run and don't execute
+```
+
+
+## Usage
+
+Example `rclone.conf`
+
+```
+[Test]
+type = sftp
+host = example.org
+user = admin
+pass = pa55w0rd
+vim_rclone_local_path = .
+vim_rclone_remote_path = /test
+
+[Test_another]
+type = sftp
+host = example.org
+user = admin
+pass = pa55w0rd
+vim_rclone_local_path = ./test_another
+vim_rclone_remote_path = /test/another
+vim_rclone_default = true
+```
+
+`:Rclone copy` copies the local `test_another` folder to the remote `/test/another` because `vim_rclone_default` is set for the **Test_another** remote.
+
+To upload to the **Test** remote use `:Rclone copy Test`.
+
+The resulting command from the example above would be
+```sh
+rclone copy $PATH_TO_PROJECT/test_another Test_another:/test/another --config=./rclone.conf
+--exclude=.git/ --exclude=.gitignore --exclude=.rcloneignore
+--exclude-from=$PATH_TO_PROJECT/test_another/.gitignore --exclude-from=$PATH_TO_PROJECT/test_another/.rcloneignore
+--log-level=INFO --log-file=${vim.fn.stdpath('data')}/rclone_nvim/rclone.log
+```
+
+### exclude files
+
+You can extend or overwrite the global `g:vim_rclone_configurable_default_exclude_patterns` variable.
+The default patterns are
+`{'.git/', '.gitignore', '.rcloneignore'}`
+
+`rclone.nvim` uses the patterns defined in a `.gitignore` and `.rcloneignore`.
+
+If you want to upload folders that are in the `.gitignore` like a `/build/` folder, then add `!/build/` to your `.rcloneignore`.
+
+**Caution:**
+
+[rclone exclude patterns](https://rclone.org/filtering/#pattern-syntax) for folders **need** a trailing slash.
+If you have ignored folders in your `.gitignore` then you have to add a trailing slash to them, or define them separately in the `.rcloneignore`.
+
+
+## Install
+
+Like any other nvim plugin.
+
+For example with [vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug)
+
+```vim
+Plug 'https://gitlab.com/dweipert.de/rclone.nvim'
+```
