Hi all,

It has been a long time since the last s3cmd release. I hope that means
 that s3cmd is now a pretty stable, mature piece of software and that
we’re on track to 1.0.0 release :-) Therefore take this 0.9.9.91 release
as a -rc1 for 1.0.0.

What's new?
===========

== Added --recursive support for cp and mv ==

It is finally possible to 'rename' buckets by moving the whole contents
from one bucket to another on the server side (ie without downloading to
your server and uploading back to S3).

== Added --include/--exclude and --dry-run for cp, mv, del and setacl ==

All file manipulation commands now understand the standard set of
parameters for including and excluding files, test runs with --dry-run, etc.

== New command 'sign' ==

This is useful for signing for instance POST upload policies in order to
allow uploading to a bucket through an ordinary web page.

== Added --verbatim mode ==

This mode prevents most filenames pre-processing, for instance
converting them to Unicode, converting to XML entities, etc. It's an
invaluable for fixing broken buckets, however successful use assumes
some decent knowledge of Amazon S3 internals. Most users will probably
prefer...

== New command 'fixbucket' ==

New command for fixing invalid filenames in a bucket. Many people
somehow seem to manage to upload files for instance with a backspace
character that later lead to an invalid XML returned from Amazon. This
command should be able to fix such buckets.
