cmd - Xcopy with excluding folders (sub-directories) -
i want copy files , folders in directory folder excluding sub-folders files contains it, example have large number file node_modules
directory 100mb 50k+ files, don't need copy.
i tried using xcopy :
xcopy . c:\inetpub\civebuildcentral\ui\. /y /s /exclude:cive\ui\elist.txt
and elist.txt contains :
\node_modules\
but no luck, , annoying syntax , don't see optimal check-in such useless file case.
any idea how solve this?
well, after searching on slimier question found in stackoverflow not helpful case:
- xcopy command excluding files , folders ( marked duplicated , not duplicated, case if answer seemed same way, , found no answer case anyway)
but found if using windows 7 or more, can use robocopy
instead, found powerful tool compared old man xcopy
, , no need dirty work exceptions, command achieve need replaced xcopy :
robocopy . c:\inetpub\civebuildcentral\ui\. /is /s /xd node_modules
for full documentation can see link : http://ss64.com/nt/robocopy.html
solved issue, , output of result nice, clear, , formatted .
