Add option "ignore_destroy" #7

Closed bobbus closed 9 years ago

bobbus commented 10 years ago

We have a production bucket and a development bucket. We regularly use a script to copy all files from production into development. As there is no bucket copy feature given by amazon, the copy process takes a lot of time especially if multiple files where deleted in development since the last synchronization. Also, if one of the developper remove a file in his local environment, it will be removed from s3 and other developer would get a file missing error.

Having an option ignore_destroy would make the synchronization a lot faster as it will only need to import created file since the last synchronization, it will also prevent any file missing due to a local modification by one of the developer.

If you are interested to integrate this feature into this project, please let me know and I will try to implement it.

sorry I didn't comment earlier on this - I'd rather not integrate it as it's quite a specific problem which can still be worked around in other ways, catching errors etc. thanks
