jcp

Just cp - A simple cp implementation for the average Joe working on Linux or Mac, who occasionally needs to copy files.

Features

jcp is a simple copy utility that:

1. Has a copy progress bar
2. Can resume interrupted transfers
3. Can copy directories
4. Supports concurrency
5. Keeps my laptop awake during the transfer!

Usage

jcp provides a minimal command-line interface, designed to keep it simple. To invoke:

jcp <source> <dest>

If <source> is a directory, it is copied to <dest>/<source> recursively.

Installation

Linux

Download the jcp binary from the latest release and run.

MacOS

Download the jcp binary from the latest release and run.

Limitations

1. jcp is not a sync tool. It does not verify the transfer, detect errors in partial transfers or runs in the background and keeps the directories synced.
2. jcp currently does not process symlinks.
