The cpdup utility makes an exact mirror copy of the source in the
|
|
destination, creating and deleting files and directories as necessary.
|
|
UTimes, hardlinks, softlinks, devices, permissions, and flags are
|
|
mirrored. By default, cpdup asks for confirmation if any file or
|
|
directory needs to be removed from the destination and does not copy
|
|
files which it believes to have already been synchronized (by observing
|
|
that the source and destination files' sizes and mtimes match). cpdup
|
|
does not cross mount points in either the source or the destination. As
|
|
a safety measure, cpdup refuses to replace a destination directory with
|
|
a file.
|
|
|
|
It is a port of the cpdup utility from DragonFly BSD.
