Description
Now I am going to sync between Google cloud storage data and aws S3.
Currently there are about 850 files (*.mp4 and *.jpg) in google cloud storage.
While running following command,
gsutil rsync -d -r gs://src-bucket s3://dst-bucket
I've got "Object metadata supplied for destination object had no object name" error.

Please help me to fix this issue.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported `gsutil rsync -d -r gs://src-bucket s3://dst-bucket` command and inspect how the CLI handles destination object metadata when syncing from Google Cloud Storage to Amazon S3. Done means the sync completes without the “Object metadata supplied for destination object had no object name” error.
