+var longHelp = `
+Serve s3 implements a basic s3 server that serves a remote 
+via s3. This can be viewed with an s3 client, or you can make
+an s3 type remote to read and write to it.
+
+S3 server supports Signature Version 4 authentication. Just
+ use ` + `--s3-authkey accessKey1,secretKey1` + ` and
+ set  Authorization Header correctly in the request. (See 
+https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/signature-version-4.html)
+
+Please note that some clients may require HTTPS endpoints. 
+See [#SSL](#ssl-tls) for SSL configuration.
+
+Use ` + `--force-path-style=false` + ` if you want to use bucket name as a part of 
+hostname (such as mybucket.local)
+
+Use ` + `--etag-hash` + ` if you want to change hash provider.
+
+Limitations
+
+serve s3 will treat all depth=1 directories in root as buckets and
+ ignore files in that depth. You might use CreateBucket to create 
+folders under root, but you can't create empty folder under other folders.
+
+When using PutObject or DeleteObject, rclone will automatically create 
+or clean up empty folders by the prefix. If you don't want to clean up 
+empty folders automatically, use ` + `--no-cleanup` + `.
+
+When using ListObjects, rclone will use ` + `/` + ` when the delimiter is empty. 
+This reduces backend requests with no effect on most operations, but if 
+the delimiter is something other than slash and nil, rclone will do a 
+full recursive search to the backend, which may take some time.
+
+serve s3 currently supports the following operations.
+Bucket-level operations
+ListBuckets, CreateBucket, DeleteBucket
+
+Object-level operations
+HeadObject, ListObjects, GetObject, PutObject, DeleteObject, DeleteObjects, 
+CreateMultipartUpload, CompleteMultipartUpload, AbortMultipartUpload, 
+CopyObject, UploadPart
+Other operations will encounter error Unimplemented.
