Copy an Existing Repository into Another Repository
copy*Repo copies artifacts from one Repository into another Repository.
It adds new files to existing gallery folder in repoTo Repository.
copyLocalRepo copies local Repository while copyRemoteRepo copies
remote Repository.
copyLocalRepo(repoFrom = NULL, repoTo, md5hashes) copyRemoteRepo(repoTo, md5hashes, repo = aoptions("repo"), user = aoptions("user"), branch = aoptions("branch"), subdir = aoptions("subdir"), repoType = aoptions("repoType"))
Arguments
| repoFrom | While copying local repository. A character that specifies
the directory of the Repository from which
artifacts will be copied. If it is set to |

| repoTo | A character that specifies the directory of the Repository into which artifacts will be copied. |
| md5hashes | A character vector containing |
| repo | While coping the remote repository. A character containing a name of the
remote repository on which the " |
| user | While coping the remote repository. A character containing a name
of the remote user on whose account the " |
| branch | While coping with the remote repository. A character containing a name of
Remote Repository's branch on which the " |
| subdir | While working with the remote repository. A character containing a name of
a directory on the remote repository on which the " |
| repoType | A character containing a type of the remote repository. Currently it can be 'Remote' or 'bitbucket'. |
Details
Functions copyLocalRepo and copyRemoteRepo copy artifacts from the
archivist's Repositories stored in a local folder or on the Remote.
Both of them use md5hashes of artifacts which are to be copied
in md5hashes parameter. For more information about md5hash see md5hash.
Note
If repo and user are set to NULL (as default) in remote mode then global parameters
set in setRemoteRepo function are used. If one would like to copy whole Repository we suggest to
extract all md5hashes in this way unique(showLocalRepo(repoDir)[,1]).
