portage.util.file_copy package

Module contents

portage.util.file_copy._optimized_copyfile(src, dst)

Copy the contents (no metadata) of the file named src to a file named dst.

If possible, copying is done within the kernel, and uses “copy acceleration” techniques (such as reflinks). This also supports sparse files.

Parameters
  • src (str) – path of source file

  • dst (str) – path of destination file
