Research direction

Start by reading the linked Amazon S3 data-integrity documentation and the related D4S2 issue. Then locate the repository's CLI entry point and determine where bucket uploads are implemented; done means a command can upload files while including each file's MD5 checksum as metadata.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description
