 .SH EXAMPLES
ee852c0a
 One of the most powerful commands of \fIs3cmd\fR is \fBs3cmd sync\fR used for 
01a80524
 synchronising complete directory trees to or from remote S3 storage. To some extent 
 \fBs3cmd put\fR and \fBs3cmd get\fR share a similar behaviour with \fBsync\fR.
ee852c0a
 .PP
 Basic usage common in backup scenarios is as simple as:
 .nf
2dff2c09
 	s3cmd sync /local/path/ s3://test-bucket/backup/
ee852c0a
 .fi
 .PP
 This command will find all files under /local/path directory and copy them 
2dff2c09
 to corresponding paths under s3://test-bucket/backup on the remote side.
ee852c0a
 For example:
 .nf
01a80524
 	/local/path/\fBfile1.ext\fR         \->  s3://bucket/backup/\fBfile1.ext\fR
 	/local/path/\fBdir123/file2.bin\fR  \->  s3://bucket/backup/\fBdir123/file2.bin\fR
ee852c0a
 .fi
01a80524
 .PP
 However if the local path doesn't end with a slash the last directory's name
 is used on the remote side as well. Compare these with the previous example:
 .nf
2dff2c09
 	s3cmd sync /local/path s3://test-bucket/backup/
01a80524
 .fi
 will sync:
 .nf
 	/local/\fBpath/file1.ext\fR         \->  s3://bucket/backup/\fBpath/file1.ext\fR
 	/local/\fBpath/dir123/file2.bin\fR  \->  s3://bucket/backup/\fBpath/dir123/file2.bin\fR
 .fi
 .PP
ee852c0a
 To retrieve the files back from S3 use inverted syntax:
 .nf
2dff2c09
 	s3cmd sync s3://test-bucket/backup/ /tmp/restore/
ee852c0a
 .fi
 that will download files:
 .nf
01a80524
 	s3://bucket/backup/\fBfile1.ext\fR         \->  /tmp/restore/\fBfile1.ext\fR       
 	s3://bucket/backup/\fBdir123/file2.bin\fR  \->  /tmp/restore/\fBdir123/file2.bin\fR
ee852c0a
 .fi
2d7d5543
 .PP
01a80524
 Without the trailing slash on source the behaviour is similar to 
 what has been demonstrated with upload:
 .nf
2dff2c09
 	s3cmd sync s3://test-bucket/backup /tmp/restore/
01a80524
 .fi
 will download the files as:
 .nf
 	s3://bucket/\fBbackup/file1.ext\fR         \->  /tmp/restore/\fBbackup/file1.ext\fR       
 	s3://bucket/\fBbackup/dir123/file2.bin\fR  \->  /tmp/restore/\fBbackup/dir123/file2.bin\fR

 All source file names, the bold ones above, are matched against \fBexclude\fR 
 rules and those that match are then re\-checked against \fBinclude\fR rules to see
 whether they should be excluded or kept in the source list.
 .PP
 For the purpose of \fB\-\-exclude\fR and \fB\-\-include\fR matching only the 
 bold file names above are used. For instance only \fBpath/file1.ext\fR is tested
 against the patterns, not \fI/local/\fBpath/file1.ext\fR

 Both \fB\-\-exclude\fR and \fB\-\-include\fR work with shell-style wildcards (a.k.a. GLOB).
 For a greater flexibility s3cmd provides Regular-expression versions of the two exclude options 
 named \fB\-\-rexclude\fR and \fB\-\-rinclude\fR. 
 The options with ...\fB\-from\fR suffix (eg \-\-rinclude\-from) expect a filename as
 an argument. Each line of such a file is treated as one pattern.

 .PP

 There is only one set of patterns built from all \fB\-\-(r)exclude(\-from)\fR options
 and similarly for include variant. Any file excluded with eg \-\-exclude can 
 be put back with a pattern found in \-\-rinclude\-from list.

 Run s3cmd with \fB\-\-dry\-run\fR to verify that your rules work as expected. 
 Use together with \fB\-\-debug\fR get detailed information
 about matching file names against exclude and include rules.

 For example to exclude all files with ".jpg" extension except those beginning with a number use:
ee852c0a
 .PP
2dff2c09
 	\-\-exclude '*.jpg' \-\-rinclude '[0-9].*\.jpg'
ac014aa8
 .PP
 To exclude all files except "*.jpg" extension, use:
 .PP
 	\-\-exclude '*' \-\-include '*.jpg'
 .PP
 To exclude local directory 'somedir', be sure to use a trailing forward slash, as such:
 .PP
 	\-\-exclude 'somedir/'
