cp [-r | -R [-H | -L | -P] ] [-fip] source_file target_file
cp [-r | -R [-H | -L | -P] ] [-fip] source_file ... target_directory
In the first synopsis form, the cp utility copies the contents of the source_file to the
target_file. In the second synopsis form, the contents of each named source_file is
copied to the destination target_directory. The names of the files themselves are
not changed. If cp detects an attempt to copy a file to itself, the copy will fail.
