Re: [S3tools-general] how to disable "remote copy" feature

[Matt D. <ma...@do...>]

There's a bug I see (and I created) in current upstream master, where
--no-check-md5 will still do the file I/O on local files to get the md5sums
for them, exactly to decide if it can do remote copying.  That's annoying.

This bug also means --no-check-md5 won't, as you might expect, disable
remote copying.  As no one has asked to be able to disable remote copying,
I never coded for it.

I'll think about this a bit.  There's probably a cleaner way to solve both
problems.
