Aws-cli: `S3` API in HK region (ap-east-1) cannot work normally

[finishy1995]

We try to use aws s3 cp s3://HK-BUCKET-NAME s3://JP-BUCKET-NAME but failed.

aws s3 cp s3://hk-bucket1/config.js s3://jp-bucket1/config.js --profile=demo
copy failed: s3://hk-bucket1/config.js to s3://jp-bucket1/config.js An error occurred (IllegalLocationConstraintException) when calling the CopyObject operation: The ap-northeast-1 location constraint is incompatible for the region specific endpoint this request was sent to.

And only if we add --region={dest_region_id}, this command will work:

aws s3 cp s3://hk-bucket1/config.js s3://jp-bucket1/config.js --profile=demo --region=ap-northeast-1
copy: s3://hk-bucket1/config.js to s3://jp-bucket1/config.js

I know we changed the endpoint setting in HK API because of the particularity of HK. But if we can change it will be better.

This is expected behavior. The CopyObject requests must be sent to the destination region. If you have configured your default region to be the source region, then you will need to do an override. Depending on your circumstances, it may also be necessary to specify the source region with --source-region

Using --region and --source-region to set the target region and source region. It works.
