Hope you can fix this!

Thanks in advance!

different target after initial copy

My command:
copy-and-watch --watch src/cms/templates/**/* src/static/**/* dist/site/templates

When the script starts, the first file is copied like this:
[COPY] src/cms/templates/basic-page.php to dist-pw\site\templates\basic-page.php

This is the desired result.

But after the initial copy, when I change this file, the whole structure after src is replicated:
[COPY] src\cms\templates\basic-page.php to dist-pw\site\templates\cms\templates\basic-page.php

TypeError: Path must be a string. Received undefined

Hi, I'm having trouble using --watch, I'm running this:

npm run watch

with

"watch": "copy-and-watch ./src/public/**/*.{html,css} ./build --watch"

and getting this result when I make a change to src/public/panel.html and save:

> [email protected] watch /Users/alex/dev/is/r2
> copy-and-watch ./src/public/**/*.{html,css} ./build --watch

Add --exclude argument

Would be nice to add a --exclude pattern argument to exclude for example .DS_Store files or folder from the copy/watch

watch crashes on folder deletion

if I do copy-and-watch --watch some/folder/**/* target/ copy-and-watch crashes if I delete some subfolder of some/folder/. In my opinion this is just a simple change that needs to mirrored.

Folders don't appear to be mirrored

I'm running this command:

copy-and-watch src/public/**/*.{html,css,jpg,png} build

with this result:

[COPY] src/public/panel.html to build/panel.html
[COPY] src/public/panel.css to build/panel.css
[COPY] src/public/icons/icon128.png to build/icon128.png
[COPY] src/public/icons/icon16.png to build/icon16.png
[COPY] src/public/icons/icon19.png to build/icon19.png
[COPY] src/public/icons/icon48.png to build/icon48.png

I expected the png files to end up in build/icon not build

Copy files initially

From the small docs, I can see it should copy the files initially, but it doesn't for me. it only does when a file has changes, and one by one. Is this because they are folders, rather than singular files?

copy-and-watch --watch packages/* web/src & copy-and-watch --watch packages/* mobile/src

symlink support?

I am using npm link for developing dependency alongside main app.

Unfortunately copy-and-watch --watch src/**/*.{html,css,js,svg,png} dist/ does not find files inside a symlink.

Is there any solution to that?

How to copy the directory itself and not the files within it?

If I do copy-and-watch --watch assets/ dist/ it will copy nothing, while I expect the assets/ folder to be copied. Also if I do copy-and-watch --watch assets/* dist/ It will copy the files inside the assets folder and not itself. Is it possible to copy and watch a directory itself?

--watch not working on file rename?

I tried to rename a file and got these errors:

XML file paths are ignored

Its working fine, except for XML files. For all other files it keeps the relative path from source folder and copies over. But XML in any sub-dir is being copied to root target dir only.

Command used: copy-and-watch --watch /mypath/**/*.{aspx,Master,asax,css,js,png,jpg,xml,gif,otf,eot,ttf,woff} /home/web/targetdir

If i run this command with *.{xml} only it sync the xml files with proper path. But not in combination with other suffixes.
