CentOS: Copy directory to another directory

Solution 1:

cp -r /home/server/folder/test /home/server/

Solution 2:

To copy all files, including hidden files use:

cp -r /home/server/folder/test/. /home/server/

Solution 3:

As I understand, you want to recursively copy test directory into /home/server/ path...

This can be done as:

-cp -rf /home/server/folder/test/* /home/server/

Hope this helps

Solution 4:

This works for me.

cp -r /home/server/folder/test/. /home/server
