A question that needs answering here is what happens with any files existing under the specified prefix and bucket but not existing in the local directory or vice versa? The answer is that they are not deleted unless a --delete parameter is added to the command.
It seems that deleting a file locally doesn't delete the file on S3.
I'll check this myself and post a comment in a few days.
Hey,
I like this very much. But what if someone were to delete files in local backup folder would the sync delete s3 backup?
This is something I previously never thought about.
However, this tutorial says,

If it's so than its great. Because that would be an security issue.
