Python script to efficiently concatenate S3 files

combineS3Files.py

'''
This script performs efficient concatenation of files stored in S3. Given a
folder, output location, and optional suffix, all files with the given suffix
will be concatenated into one file stored in the output location.

Concatenation is performed within S3 when possible, falling back to local
operations when necessary.

Run `python combineS3Files.py -h` for more info.

is there an option to skip the header line or first line of the file? I think if there is an option to skip the header line, it will make s3_concat even better or perfect.
