you can also use this in dir1
find . -type f -exec cp{} dir2/ \;
質問
I'd like to copy a content of directory 1 to directory 2. However, I'd like to only copy files (and not directories) from my directory 1. How can I do that ?
cp dir1/* dir2/*
then I still have the directories issue.

You may try this one
cp dir1/*.* dir2/*
try this one
find dir1 -type f -exec cp {} dir2/ \;
The currently approved solution will work, however if sub-directories exist, this will also copy the files from the subfolders as well, but instead of putting the copied files in sub folders, it will copy them to dir1.
/dir1/dir1a/test.txt
will end up as dir1/test.txt
-maxdepth
can be used to only copy files in dir1
:
find dir1 -maxdepth 1 -type f -exec cp {} dir2/ \;
