Hi,

what I do is: On a Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS server, I use s3cmd get to download a directory from s3. Then in the directory, I change a file's name. Then I use "s3cmd sync --dry-run " to check whether s3cmd can find the difference. But s3cmd obviously doesn't know I changed a file's name.

Is this correct? What is the underlying logic?

What version of s3cmd are you using? If from the Ubuntu 12.04 repository, it is probably very old and very buggy.
