From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

GDrive has command line mount tools and works fine through rsync as long as you put the right tokens in the right places. Duplicity supports Google Drive as a backup destination, which is also quite useful for command line scripts.
Google doesn't have any Linux clients other than their ChromeOS client, but there are plenty of tools that will synchronise your files.
