`aws s3 cp`, `aws s3 sync` not excluding/including keys properly
Raw
aws-s3-include.md

It turns out that the order of the --exclude and --include flags passed to aws s3 sync and aws s3 cp matters, so

aws s3 sync 's3://my-bucket' . --include '*' --exclude '*.png'

won't download anything but

aws s3 sync 's3://my-bucket' . --exclude '*' --include '*.png'

will download all PNGs in the "root" of the bucket.
