make mirror no longer dependant on what it is mirroring #656

Open arekm opened 2 years ago

Feature request.

Currently "mirror" works only on directories and fails on files.

Would be nice to have one command that works for all source types (dir or file).

Is there any reason that mirror should not work for files?

There is an option for mirroring a single file.

How to make it default, so "mirror file" and "mirror dir" will both work (so won't have to detect source type in scripts)

alias mirror "mirror -f"

doesn't work.

 queue mirror -c "Ron's.abc.txt"
mirror: ambiguous source directory (`' or `Ron's.abc.txt'?)
