Feature request: Copy from a directory to another directory

[rbatllet]

I need to be able to copy a directory and all its directories, respecting the local paths to another directory.

This is impossible to do it with this module currently.

1. what exactly are you doing? i.e. what is a basic directory setup that causes this to happen?
2. what do you expect should happen?
3. what actually happens?

copyfiles src/public/* dist/ Should copy the public folder into dist but it copies the src folder instead.

EDIT: copyfiles -u 1 src/public/* dist this works :D

I'm having this issue as well with copyfiles -u 2 'out/tsc/**' 'out/webpack/**' dist but it says can't go up that far. I don't want out, tsc, or webpack folder in the output, only the recursive contents. I can't flatten either.

EDIT: Looks like solution here works: https://github.com/calvinmetcalf/copyfiles/issues/61#issuecomment-493139970
