This will be more useful -since users will already need to be in guestfish in order to create -target directories, review what they've done etc. It could be a meta- -command such as: - - copy-in-recursive localdir remotedir - copy-out-recursive remotedir localdir - -which would hide use of tgz-in etc. - -Other thoughts on this: - -virt-cp or virt-rcp or virt-copy or virt-scp or ...? - -virt-copy *.c *.h GuestName:/tmp/ - -virt-copy -r dir/ GuestName:/tmp/ - -virt-copy GuestName:/tmp/foo* . - -virt-copy disk.img:/tmp/bar* otherdisk.img:/tmp -( probably not because it requires multiple libguestfs connections)
