Documented steps

  1. Run mc mirror /local/dir ALIAS/BUCKET to copy the directory into the bucket.
  2. Add --overwrite to replace objects that differ and --remove to delete remote objects not present locally (destructive).
  3. Use --watch to continuously mirror as local files change (useful for backup/CI).
  4. Reverse the order (mc mirror ALIAS/BUCKET /local/dir) to sync from bucket to local.
  5. Verify with mc ls ALIAS/BUCKET or mc diff ALIAS/BUCKET /local/dir.
