NAME
cp - copy files and directories
SYNOPSIS
cp [OPTION]... SOURCE DEST
cp [OPTION]... SOURCE... DIRECTORY
cp [OPTION]... --target-directory=DIRECTORY SOURCE...
DESCRIPTION
Copy SOURCE to DEST, or multiple SOURCE(s) to DIRECTORY.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
-a, --archive
same as -dpR
--backup[=CONTROL]
make a backup of each existing destination file
-b like --backup but does not accept an argument
--copy-contents
copy contents of special files when recursive
-d same as --no-dereference --preserve=link
--no-dereference
never follow symbolic links
-f, --force
if an existing destination file cannot be opened, remove it and try again
-i, --interactive
prompt before overwrite
-H follow command-line symbolic links
-l, --link
link files instead of copying
-L, --dereference
always follow symbolic links
-p same as --preserve=mode,ownership,timestamps
--preserve[=ATTR_LIST]
preserve the specified attributes (default: mode,ownership,timestamps) and
security contexts, if possible additional attributes: links, all
--no-preserve=ATTR_LIST
don’t preserve the specified attributes
--parents
append source path to DIRECTORY
-P same as ‘--no-dereference’
-R, -r, --recursive
copy directories recursively
--remove-destination
remove each existing destination file before attempting to open it (contrast
with --force)
--reply={yes,no,query}
specify how to handle the prompt about an existing destination file
--sparse=WHEN
control creation of sparse files
--strip-trailing-slashes remove any trailing slashes from each SOURCE
argument
-s, --symbolic-link
make symbolic links instead of copying
-S, --suffix=SUFFIX
override the usual backup suffix
--target-directory=DIRECTORY
move all SOURCE arguments into DIRECTORY
-u, --update
copy only when the SOURCE file is newer than the destination file or when
the destination file is missing
-v, --verbose
explain what is being done
-x, --one-file-system
stay on this file system
--help display this help and exit
-Z, --context=CONTEXT
set security context of copy to CONTEXT
--version
output version information and exit
By default, sparse SOURCE files are detected by a crude heuristic and the corre-
sponding DEST file is made sparse as well. That is the behavior selected by
--sparse=auto. Specify --sparse=always to create a sparse DEST file whenever the
SOURCE file contains a long enough sequence of zero bytes. Use --sparse=never to
inhibit creation of sparse files.
The backup suffix is ‘~’, unless set with --suffix or SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX. The
version control method may be selected via the --backup option or through the VER-
SION_CONTROL environment variable. Here are the values:
none, off
never make backups (even if --backup is given)
numbered, t
make numbered backups
existing, nil
numbered if numbered backups exist, simple otherwise
simple, never
always make simple backups
As a special case, cp makes a backup of SOURCE when the force and backup options
are given and SOURCE and DEST are the same name for an existing, regular file.
