Question about copying files

[Christian Cryder <ch...@granitepeaks.com>]

Hi folks,

I need to copy sample files sometimes, and I currently do it like this:

    <copy todir="${build.dir}" >
        <fileset dir="${build.dir}" />
        <mapper type="glob" from="sample.*" to="*" />
    </copy>

What I need to know how to do, is to only copy files that _do not already
exist_.

In other words, if I have the following files in a directory:

  sample.foo1 (unchanged, foo1 exists)
  sample.foo2 (changed, foo2 exists)
  sample.foo3 (new, foo3 does not exist)

only foo3 should be copied.

Suggestions?

tia,
Christian
