    10  Copy files from source to dest, skipping already copied
    11  
    12  ## Synopsis
    13  
    14  
    15  If source:path is a file or directory then it copies it to a file or
    16  directory named dest:path.
    17  
    18  This can be used to upload single files to other than their current
    19  name.  If the source is a directory then it acts exactly like the copy
    20  command.
    21  
    22  So
    23  
    24      rclone copyto src dst
    25  
    26  where src and dst are rclone paths, either remote:path or
    27  /path/to/local or C:\windows\path\if\on\windows.
    28  
    29  This will:
    30  
    31      if src is file
    32          copy it to dst, overwriting an existing file if it exists
    33      if src is directory
    34          copy it to dst, overwriting existing files if they exist
    35          see copy command for full details
    36  
    37  This doesn't transfer unchanged files, testing by size and
    38  modification time or MD5SUM.  It doesn't delete files from the
    39  destination.
    40  
    41  **Note**: Use the `-P`/`--progress` flag to view real-time transfer statistics
