Help: copy

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.

options:

 -A --after               record a copy that has already occurred
 -f --force               forcibly copy over an existing managed file
 -I --include PATTERN [+] include names matching the given patterns
 -X --exclude PATTERN [+] exclude names matching the given patterns
 -n --dry-run             do not perform actions, just print output

[+] marked option can be specified multiple times
