Is there a way to copy directory structure with files but without their contents. I mean that I want exactly the same directories with files names but leaving them blank/empty. I have few example applications in some programming language and I want to rewrite them with my own style but keeping the way that they was organised in files.
I would be grateful for any help.
From man cp
--attributes-only don't copy the file data, just the attributes
So , if you want to copy all folders and files that are in somedirectory
do cp -R --attributes-only somedirectory destinationdirectory
