    --metadata: Set metadata for uploaded blobs.
    --blob-type: Specify the blob type (BlockBlob, PageBlob, AppendBlob).

Sync Blobs:
  azcopy sync '<source>' '<destination>' [flags]
  - Synchronizes the contents of a source directory with a destination directory.
  - Only files that are new or have changed in the source are uploaded.
  - Flags are similar to the 'copy' command.

List Blobs:
  azcopy list '<container-url>' [flags]
  - Lists the blobs in a specified container.
  - Flags:
    --delimiter: Specifies a delimiter for listing blobs (e.g., '/').
    --machine-readable: Outputs results in a machine-readable format.

Remove Blobs:
  azcopy remove '<container-url>' [flags]
  - Removes blobs from a specified container.
  - Flags:
    --recursive: Removes blobs in subdirectories recursively.
    --include-pattern: Include only blobs that match the pattern.
    --exclude-pattern: Exclude blobs that match the pattern.

Make Blobs:
  azcopy make '<container-url>' [flags]

  - Flags:
    --public-access: Sets the public access level for the container (blob, container, off).

Job Commands:
  azcopy jobs list
    - Lists all completed, failed, and in-progress jobs.
  azcopy jobs show <job-id>
    - Shows details of a specific job.
  azcopy jobs resume <job-id>

    azcopy login
  - Using SAS token:
    Set the AZCOPY_AUTO_LOGIN_TYPE environment variable to 'SharedKey' or 'SAS' and provide the SAS token in the AZCOPY_SAS_TOKEN environment variable, or pass it directly in the command.

Example Usage:
  Copy a local directory to a blob container:
  azcopy copy "C:\my-local-data" "https://[account].blob.core.windows.net/[container]?[SAS-token]" --recursive=true

  Sync a blob container with a local directory:
