gvfs-copy (1)

gvfs-copy [OPTION...] [SOURCE] [DEST] gvfs-copy [OPTION...] [SOURCE...] [DIRECTORY]

gvfs-copy copies a file from SOURCE to DEST, or multiple SOURCEs to DIRECTORY.

gvfs-copy is similar to the traditional cp utility, but using gvfs locations instead of local files: for example you can use something like smb://server/resource/file.txt as location.

The following options are understood:

-h, --help

Prints a short help text and exits.

--version

Shows the version number and exits.

-T, --no-target-directory

Don't copy into DEST even if it is a directory.

-p, --progress

Show progress.

-i, --interactive

Prompt before overwriting files.

--preserve

Preserve all attributes.

-b, --backup

Backup existing destination files.

-P, --no-dereference

Never follow symlinks.

On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
