I stumbled upon a few posts that mentioned Emcopy, a tool created by EMC. Robocopy seems stuck to the date last modified of the file and while it appears it also checks for file differences the date always wins. I was expecting rsync and got a slightly beefier Xcopy instead.ĭespite trying all sorts of flag options I could never get Robocopy to just copy files that had changed. The next thing I ran into was Robocopy's total failure on doing differential copies.

Testing copies to my local workstation (Win7) were really quick but when I copied the same files to a Windows 2003 server things were much slower. it's only supported on newer servers (2008+). This can dramatically speed up copying, but. Newer versions of Robocopy support a 'thread' option. And I quickly ran into an issue using Robocopy to move them to the server took forever.ĭoing some research I found a few things. We have a few projects that have a LOT of files. I've been working on moving everything into Jenkins.
We have a mix of Git, Ant and Robocopy scripts for deployments at work.
