GH-73991: Add `pathlib.Path.copy()` by barneygale · Pull Request #119058 · python/cpython
Add a `Path.copy()` method that copies a file to a target file or directory using `shutil.copy2()`. In the private pathlib ABCs, we add a version that supports copying from one instance of `PathBase` to another. We don't copy metadata, because doing so probably requires new APIs that haven't been designed yet.

Add a `Path.copy()` method that copies the content of one file to another. This method is similar to `shutil.copyfile()` but differs in the following ways: - Uses `fcntl.FICLONE` where available (see pythonGH-81338) - Uses `os.copy_file_range` where available (see pythonGH-81340) - Uses `_winapi.CopyFile2` where available, even though this copies more metadata than the other implementations. This makes `WindowsPath.copy()` more similar to `shutil.copy2()`. The method is presently _less_ specified than the `shutil` functions to allow OS-specific optimizations that might copy more or less metadata. Incorporates code from pythonGH-81338 and pythonGH-93152. Co-authored-by: Eryk Sun <eryksun@gmail.com>
