### Limitations of Google Docs
Google docs will appear as size -1 in `rclone ls` and as size 0 in
anything which uses the VFS layer, e.g. `rclone mount`, `rclone serve`.
Google docs will appear as size -1 in `rclone ls`, `rclone ncdu` etc,
and as size 0 in anything which uses the VFS layer, e.g. `rclone mount`
and `rclone serve`. When calculating directory totals, e.g. in
`rclone size` and `rclone ncdu`, they will be counted in as empty
files.
This is because rclone can't find out the size of the Google docs
without downloading them.
