Description

AWS DataSync task supports include filters as well as exclude filters.

This enhancement enables us to have greater control over how data is transferred. Additionally, we can queue multiple executions of a task when the filter settings differ between executions.

New or Affected Resource(s)

• aws_datasync_task

Potential Terraform Configuration

resource "aws_datasync_task" "sync_subset" {
  excludes {
    filter_type = "SIMPLE_PATTERN"
    value       = "/dir_A|/dir_B"
  }
  includes {
    filter_type = "SIMPLE_PATTERN"
    value       = "/dir_C|/dir_D"
  }
}

Shurichiro's PR got approved, but never got merged, and now it's in conflict. I just stole Shuichiro's code and rebased it in the above PR. I hope the tests pass.
