I added my data with `dvc add mydata/path` then i got `mydata.dvc`  
the `config` file in `.dvc` folder is

> [core]  
> remote = my\_remote  
> [cache]  
> type = “reflink,hardlink”  
> [‘remote “my\_remote”’]  
> url = s3://…

when i ran `dvc push`  
it raised an error

> unexpected error - **init** () got an unexpected keyword argument ‘cache\_regions’

can anyone help me figure out this problem?

s3 (s3fs = 0.4.2, boto3 = 1.17.72)

It is a really old version of s3fs, could you please update your s3fs via

pip install --upgrade’dvc[s3]’

and try again?  
?

Thank you.  
I solved it by re-install dvc then everything is fine. so i think this old version may be the cause.
