Copy files (with wildcards) into -to folder
with 1 sec progression feedback. Huge file, tiny bandwidth
and unreliable media (-verify)
By default overwrite, use -paranoid to create unique name
The main use is for progress feedback, to make sure it's not stuck
The secondary, extremely important when using .zpaq files, is the ability to use -append, just like rsync's --append switch Updating a zpaq file on a samba NAS is essentially straightforward
This makes a copy resumable, for example in case of interruptions on the connection, control-c or whatever
- -verify Do an heavy (XXH3) check of copied data
- -paranoid Rename output file to do not overwrite
- -append Only append data (*risky, use with zpaq archives)
- -force Do no check if destination is writeable
- -space Do no check if enough destination free space
Examples:
Copy k:\*.mp4 d:\a.txt in z:\pluto cp k:\*.mp4 d:\a.txt -to z:\pluto
Copy with verify cp k:\*.mp4 -to z:\pluto -verify
Copy WITHOUT overwrite cp k:\*.mp4 -to z:\pluto -paranoid
Resumable copy (append only) cp k:\*.zpaq -to z:\pluto -append
