# cp
|
||||
|
||||
> Copy files and directories.
|
||||
> More information: <https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/cp>.
|
||||
|
||||
- Copy a file to another location:
|
||||
|
||||
`cp {{path/to/source_file.ext}} {{path/to/target_file.ext}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Copy a file into another directory, keeping the filename:
|
||||
|
||||
`cp {{path/to/source_file.ext}} {{path/to/target_parent_directory}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Recursively copy a directory's contents to another location (if the destination exists, the directory is copied inside it):
|
||||
|
||||
`cp -r {{path/to/source_directory}} {{path/to/target_directory}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Copy a directory recursively, in verbose mode (shows files as they are copied):
|
||||
|
||||
`cp -vr {{path/to/source_directory}} {{path/to/target_directory}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Copy multiple files at once to a directory:
|
||||
|
||||
`cp -t {{path/to/destination_directory}} {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Copy all files with a specific extension to another location, in interactive mode (prompts user before overwriting):
|
||||
|
||||
`cp -i {{*.ext}} {{path/to/target_directory}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Follow symbolic links before copying:
|
||||
|
||||
`cp -L {{link}} {{path/to/target_directory}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Use the full path of source files, creating any missing intermediate directories when copying:
|
||||
|
||||
`cp --parents {{source/path/to/file}} {{path/to/target_file}}`
