grive-sync.sh is not uploading detected changes.

[tsiegleauq]

Detecting changes using systemctl --user start grive-changes@$(systemd-escape google-drive).service works. However, uploading them works not.

systemctl --user status grive-changes@$(systemd-escape google-drive).service Will inform you that:

grive-sync.sh[10574]: Listening for changes in ~/google-drive/
grive-sync.sh[10574]: Need a directory name in the current users home directory as second argument. Aborting.

therefore, no changes are being made.

Reproduce:

• mkdir ~/grive-test
• cd ~/grive-test
• grive -a and do the usuall stuff
• systemctl --user start grive-changes@$(systemd-escape grive-test).service
• touch ~/grive-test/test-file.txt
• systemctl --user status grive-changes@$(systemd-escape grive-test).service will show the error.

My guess is that this is because the unescape happens twice in that case: it's started with the escaped version, the listens to the changes, but the call to sync then uses a unescaped version of the filename.

λ systemd-escape --unescape $(systemd-escape --unescape $(systemd-escape grive-test))
grive/test
