In my tests, this has to be set when uploading a file to the bucket
and then the file can be accessed using the bucketname.s3.amazonaws.com
url.
Setting it when creating the bucket didn't seem to make the whole bucket
public, or allow accessing files stored in it. But I have gone ahead and
also sent it when creating the bucket just in case that is needed in some
case.
Useful for things like ipfs that don't use regular urls.
An external special remote can add a regular url to a key, and then
git-annex get will download it from the web. But for ipfs, we want to
instead tell git-annex that the uri uses OtherDownloader. Before this
change, the external special remote protocol lacked a way to do that.
Doesn't really seem worth making it work; addurl --fast can be used to
get a tree of files in the torrent and then the user can rm the ones they
don't want.
addurl behavior change: When downloading an url ending in .torrent,
it will download files from bittorrent, instead of the old behavior
of adding the torrent file to the repository.
Added Recommends on aria2 and bittornado | bittorrent.

When uploading the last part of a file, which was 640229 bytes, S3 rejected
that part: "Your proposed upload is smaller than the minimum allowed size"
I don't know what the minimum is, but the fix is just to include the last
part into the previous part. Since this can result in a part that's
double-sized, use half-sized parts normally.
I'm a little stuck on getting the list of etags of the parts.
This seems to require taking the md5 of each part locally,
which doesn't get along well with lazily streaming in the part from the
file. It would need to read the file twice, or lose laziness and buffer a
whole part -- but parts might be quite large.
This seems to be a problem with the API provided; S3 is supposed to return
an etag, but that is not exposed. I have filed a bug:
