This program is very good at backing up and one of the easiest I've found to work with s3.

I have just one question.

Say for example, I run this command:

s3sync.rb -r --ssl --delete --progress -v s3bucket:/home /root

The s3bucket contains something like /home/test/files.tar.gz

When I run the command, I get an error like:

Could not mkdir /root/home/test: No such file or directory - /root/home/test
Could not change owner/permissions on /root/home/test: No such file or directory - /root/home/test

---------
But if I do this:

s3sync.rb -r --ssl --delete --progress -v s3bucket:/home/test /root

There are no errors.

I assume that s3sync.rb can't handle if there's another subdirectory?

I'm just thinking if there's another way to restore all the subdirectories under s3bucket:/home quickly instead of manually restoring each directory under it.
