hg copy [OPTION]... [SOURCE]... DEST
aliases: cp
mark files as copied for the next commit
Mark dest as having copies of source files. If dest is a
directory, copies are put in that directory. If dest is a file,
the source must be a single file.
By default, this command copies the contents of files as they
exist in the working directory. If invoked with -A/--after, the
operation is recorded, but no copying is performed.
This command takes effect with the next commit. To undo a copy
before that, see :hg:`revert`.
Returns 0 on success, 1 if errors are encountered.
