pcp

pcp is a parallel copy/move utility with safety and speed as the main focus

Goals

• performance: aims to be fast by default
• safety: when copying files you want to be sure nothing gets corrupted or lost
• progress: should be able to track progress and continue when it left off
• cross-platform: long term, pcp should work on Windows, Linux and macOS
• file-input: take a file as input to read directories from

Installation

Download the binary

https://github.com/Skyppex/pcp/releases

Build from source

clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/skypex/pcp.git

cd into the pcp directory with cd pcp

then build:

cargo build
# or
cargo build --release

the binary can be found in ./target/debug/ or ./target/release/ respectively.

add that location to PATH or copy the binary to a folder in your PATH.

then you can run pcp --help to see all the options (pcp.exe --help on some windows shells)
