Copy files via command line or Node.js.
- Resume ability via state saving allows you to copy hundreds of thousands of files without having to start over.
- Parallel transfers can increase speed of transferring smaller files over network connections such as Samba.
- Because sometimes you need to copy a lot of stuff!
