It would be nice if, for example,

aws put --help

would list and describe --md5 etc.

I wrote aws when Amazon provided a few services, and it was already a lot of work to keep up with the documentation. Since then, the number of services and options has exploded, and it is impossible for me to keep up. Instead, I have been implementing a few features to match requested use cases and documenting them in the FAQs. I think you'll fine a mention of --md5 in a FAQ.

Sorry I can't do more. I reached out to Amazon early on, when this tool was the most popular command line tool, but they declined even to give me beta access to new services. On Nov 17, 2015 12:09 PM, "Eric" notifications@github.com wrote:
