cp plugin

This plugin defines a cpv function that uses rsync so that you get the features and security of this command.

To enable, add cp to your plugins array in your zshrc file:

plugins=(... cp)

Description

The enabled options for rsync are:

  • -p: preserves permissions.

  • -o: preserves owner.

  • -g: preserves group.

  • -b: make a backup of the original file instead of overwriting it, if it exists.

  • -r: recurse directories.

  • -hhh: outputs numbers in human-readable format, in units of 1024 (K, M, G, T).

  • --backup-dir="/tmp/rsync-$USERNAME": move backup copies to "/tmp/rsync-$USERNAME".

  • -e /dev/null: only work on local files (disable remote shells).

  • --progress: display progress.
