BK-CP(1)

💖 bk cp — from the BitKeeper User’s Manual 💖

okay bestie, welcome to bk cp (manual section: none) — the BitKeeper copy glow-up, but make it revision-history aware. ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

bk cp — create a copy of a file preserving its revision history 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bk cp oldfile newfile

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So here’s the tea: use bk cp to copy an existing file and its revision history to a new file. The new file will have a changed root identifier so that it is managed as a new object under BitKeeper control — iconic behavior, honestly. 👑

And no cap: there is no linkage between oldfile and newfile, i.e., updates to oldfile will not be applied to newfile as well. Periodt. 💅
