Rclone S4 Version features

What support does Rclone current version have for versioned S3 repositories? I would like to list, or copy, a repository based on what the S3 looked like at a specific instant in time. Any ideas?
And my apologies if I missed this in the documentation.

hello and welcome to the forum,

as far as i know, rclone does not support versioning in s3.

depending on your use-case, these might be possible workarounds

forever forward incremental backups, where for each backup, older files that would be deleted are moved to a folder with a date/time stamp.

rclone sync /path/to/folder remote:full --backup-dir=remote:incrementals/`date +%Y%m%d.%I%M%S`

or
--suffix

We've never quite got round to that and it would be a nice feature.

We have support for the B2 backend versions though and we did factor the versioning code into a in internal library so it should be possible to support it like this
