Overwriting files in volumes

What happens if I run railway up with files in a folder /foo on which a volume is mounted already? Does it add/overwrite the files to/in the volume?

I totally forgot the N/A part lol I see. So, is there an alternative for my use case? I have secrets in a file that I need to push to Railway They need to be in files as that's what Google Drive's API requires or perhaps there's a method that doesn't require them from a file 🤔

upload the files to the volume, you would never ever want to put the Google credential file in your github

because I have code like: creds = Credentials.from_authorized_user_file("db/token.json", SCOPES) how do I upload to the volume? I don't see any GUI

all file access on the volume has to be done through the service it's attached to

yeah so, how do I get my service to generate secrets lol I can't fetch secrets from any API

sorry I'm not too sure if that's a railway related question

it was a rhetoric question I mean to say that I can't upload secrets into the volume through my service
