the `sync` command uses `"github.com/lanrat/extsort"` to create a temporary directory (and files) for computing what to copy this PR adds a command line flag (& equivalent environment variable) to control where the directory is created. without it set, you always get the "intelligent choice", such as `/tmp`, but users have plenty of reasons to choose a different directory (`/tmp` too small, faster location that `extsort` didn't notice, etc.) Ref: https://github.com/lanrat/extsort#temporary-directory-selection example usage: ``` s5cmd sync --sort-temp-dir=/scratch FILE s3://[somewhere]/FILE ``` or ``` export S5CMD_SORT_TEMP_DIR=/scratch s5cmd sync FILE s3://[somewhere]/FILE ```
