Another work around

Give the file name in the destination like dbxcli-linux-amd64 put Downloads/2019-05-20.pdf /bills-0000000000/2019-05-20.pdf

Code observations

Function validatePath(p string) in root.go trims p always.

I suppose it should retain directory name if p has it. If p does not has prefix / then only prefix it.

Code observations

Function put in put.go always takes base of first argument and prefixes with / irrespective of what the argument user passes.

I hit this too. You can work around it by appending a filename to the target, but the bigger problem to me was that it did the full upload (15 GB) and then failed at the end.

@Yostage I just hit the same issue. I uploaded 17 GB just to learn that I had to specify a filename, not just a directory, as the target.

dropbox / dbxcli
