📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

A new trash_file() method was added to the GoogleAPIClient class that moves files to Google Drive trash using the files().update() API with trashed=True, employing exponential backoff and flushing pending batch updates. The existing delete_file() method's documentation was updated to clarify the distinction between permanent deletion and moving to trash.

Poem

🐰 A trash can's call, not quite the end,
Files flutter softly, gently penned,
To Drive's recycle they now can go,
Reversible grace—a gentler flow! ✨

Check name	Status	Explanation	Resolution
Title check	❓ Inconclusive	The title 'trash_file' is vague and lacks context. While it references a method name, it doesn't convey what the PR accomplishes or why the change matters from a user perspective.	Consider a more descriptive title like 'Add trash_file method to GoogleAPIClient' or 'Add ability to move files to trash instead of permanently deleting' that better explains the purpose and impact of the change.
