The Rust `deltaglider_proxy` ships proxy + CLI + UI in one binary with a
byte-identical wire format. Maintaining both has been a duplication tax
(metadata-namespace fix v6.1.2 had to land twice). This release is the
final feature release; security/bug fixes stop here.
What this commit does:
- CLI: every invocation prints a deprecation notice to stderr pointing
at github.com/beshu-tech/deltaglider_proxy with a one-line migration
alias (`alias dg='deltaglider_proxy s3'`). Banner prints once per
process; suppress via DG_SUPPRESS_DEPRECATION=1 for CI that hasn't
migrated yet.
- README: prominent deprecation banner at the top with the migration
command and the archive-timing notice (~1 week after v6.2.0 ships).
- pyproject.toml: description prefixed with "DEPRECATED" so PyPI search
results show the warning. Classifier moved Beta -> Inactive.
- CHANGELOG: v6.2.0 entry under "Deprecated" documenting the migration
path + archive plan, preserving the carried-forward Fixed/Changed/
Added items from Unreleased.
Repo archive timing: Maintainer will archive ~1 week after v6.2.0 hits
PyPI to give users a window to see the stderr notice on their next
update. PyPI installs continue to work indefinitely.
No behaviour changes to the wire format, the CLI surface, or the
metadata schema. Existing buckets remain readable forever.

Updated all documentation to reflect the boto3-compatible dict responses:
- Fixed pagination examples in README.md to use dict access
- Updated docs/sdk/api.md with correct list_objects() signature and examples
- Added return type documentation for list_objects()
- Updated CHANGELOG.md with breaking changes and migration info
All examples now use:
- response['Contents'] instead of response.contents
- response.get('IsTruncated') instead of response.is_truncated
- response.get('NextContinuationToken') for pagination

This commit adds core bucket management functionality and enhances the SDK's internal file filtering to provide a cleaner abstraction layer.
**Bucket Management**:
- Add create_bucket(), delete_bucket(), list_buckets() to DeltaGliderClient
- Idempotent operations (creating existing bucket or deleting non-existent returns success)
- Complete boto3-compatible API for basic bucket operations
- Eliminates need for boto3 in most use cases
**Enhanced SDK Filtering**:
- SDK now filters .delta suffix and reference.bin from all list_objects() responses
- Simplified CLI to rely on SDK filtering (removed duplicate logic)
- Single source of truth for internal file hiding
**Delete Cleanup Logic**:
- Automatically removes orphaned reference.bin when last delta in DeltaSpace is deleted
- Prevents storage waste from abandoned reference files
- Works for both single delete() and recursive delete_recursive()
**Documentation & Testing**:
- Added BOTO3_COMPATIBILITY.md documenting actual 20% method coverage (21/100+ methods)
- Updated README to reflect accurate boto3 compatibility claims
- New comprehensive test suite for filtering and cleanup features (test_filtering_and_cleanup.py)
- New bucket management test suite (test_bucket_management.py)
- Example code for bucket lifecycle management (examples/bucket_management.py)
- Fixed mypy configuration to eliminate source file found twice errors
- All CI checks passing (lint, format, type check, 18 unit tests, 61 integration tests)
**Cleanup**:
- Removed PYPI_RELEASE.md (redundant with existing docs)

BREAKING CHANGE: list_objects and get_bucket_stats signatures updated
## Problem
The list_objects method was making a separate HEAD request for every object
in the bucket to fetch metadata, causing severe performance degradation:
- 100 objects = 101 API calls (1 LIST + 100 HEAD)
- Response time: ~2.6 seconds for 1000 objects
## Solution
Implemented smart metadata fetching with intelligent defaults:
- Added FetchMetadata parameter (default: False) to list_objects
- Added detailed_stats parameter (default: False) to get_bucket_stats
- NEVER fetch metadata for non-delta files (they don't need it)
- Only fetch metadata for delta files when explicitly requested
## Performance Impact
- Before: ~2.6 seconds for 1000 objects (N+1 API calls)
- After: ~50ms for 1000 objects (1 API call)
- Improvement: ~5x faster for typical operations
## API Changes
- list_objects(..., FetchMetadata=False) - Smart performance default
- get_bucket_stats(..., detailed_stats=False) - Quick stats by default
- Full pagination support with ContinuationToken
- Backwards compatible with existing code
## Implementation Details
- Eliminated unnecessary HEAD requests for metadata
- Smart detection: only delta files can benefit from metadata
- Preserved boto3 compatibility while adding performance optimizations
- Updated documentation with performance notes and examples
## Testing
- All existing tests pass
- Added test coverage for new parameters
- Linting (ruff) passes
- Type checking (mypy) passes
- 61 tests passing (18 unit + 43 integration)
Fixes: Web UI /buckets/ endpoint 2.6s latency

- Renamed Leaf class to DeltaSpace throughout the codebase
- Updated all imports, method signatures, and variable names
- Updated documentation and comments to reflect the new naming
- DeltaSpace better represents a container for delta-compressed files
The term "DeltaSpace" is more semantically accurate than "Leaf" as it
represents a space/container for managing related files with delta
compression, not a terminal node in a tree structure.
