How can you copy files or directories?



How can you copy files or directories?..

Answer / hr@tgksolutions.com

To duplicate files or directories, UNIX offers the cp command. For copying files, the syntax is cp source_file destination_directory/. If duplicating a directory, the -r option (meaning recursive) must be added, as in cp -r source_directory destination_directory/. This ensures all sub-files and sub-directories are replicated too. The cp command is fundamental when backing up data or creating duplicate research resources.
