# The purpose of this script is to sync objects from one container to the other.
#
# This script will take the input of the origin container and also the destination container.
#
# Then this script will delete the destination container if present, create it and
# then copy files recursively from the origin container to the destination container.
#
# Pyrax source was very helpful for this script:
# https://github.com/rackspace/pyrax
