Question

In my computer, I want to backup the project, so I copy:

cp off_web off_web_bak_20171008

But it give the below error:

cp:omitting directory 'off_web'

Answer 1

You try the below command:

cp -r off_web off_web_bak_20171008

This error when you execute cp command means under the off_web directory, there are still have directory under the off_web, use -r will recursive copy the project.
