SYNOPSIS

   g.copy
   g.copy --help
   g.copy    [raster=from,to]     [raster_3d=from,to]     [vector=from,to]

   Parameters:
   raster=from,to
       raster map(s) to be copied

   raster_3d=from,to
       3D raster map(s) to be copied

   vector=from,to
       vector map(s) to be copied

   label=from,to
       paint label file(s) to be copied

DESCRIPTION

   A user may access data stored under the other mapsets listed  in  their
   mapset search path. However, the user may only modify data stored under
   their own current mapset. g.copy allows the user to copy existing  data
   files  from  other  mapsets to the user's current mapset ($MAPSET). The
   files to be copied must exist in the user's current mapset search  path
   and   location;   output   is   sent   to  the  relevant  data  element
   directory(ies) under the user's current mapset.

EXAMPLES

   If the user wished to copy the existing raster file  soils  to  a  file
   called  soils.ph  and  to  copy  an existing vector map roads to a file
   called rds.old, the user could type:
   g.copy raster=soils,soils.ph
   g.copy vector=roads,rds.old
   # or even combined:
   g.copy raster=soils,soils.ph vector=roads,rds.old

   Data files can also be specified by their mapsets.   For  example,  the
   below  command copies the raster map named soils from the mapset wilson
   to a new file called soils  to  be  placed  under  the  user's  current
   mapset:
   g.copy raster=soils@wilson,soils
   If  no mapset name is specified, g.copy searches for the named from map
   in each of the mapset directories listed in the user's  current  mapset
   search  path  in  the  order  in  which  mapsets  are listed there (see
   g.mapsets).
