if (FALSE) {
tfile <- tempfile()
aws_file_download(remote_path = "s3://s64-test-2/DESCRIPTION", path = tfile)

# many files
tfiles <- replicate(n = 3, tempfile())
aws_file_download(
  remote_path =
    s3_path("s64-test-2", c("a_file", "c_file", "d_file")), path = tfiles
)

## length of `remote_path` and `path` must be the same
tfiles <- replicate(n = 2, tempfile())
aws_file_download(
  remote_path =
    s3_path("s64-test-2", c("a_file", "c_file", "d_file")), path = tfiles
)

# S3 file does not exist
temp_path <- tempfile()
aws_file_download(s3_path("s64-test-2", "TESTING123"), temp_path)
