Subject: Copy files in a directory not directory itself where source directory
name is not known
/*
[...]
Basically what I want to is to copy everything under source/repository-**/
and place it in target.
The problem is that when I do this:
<copy todir="target">
<fileset dir="source">
<include name="repository-**/**"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
it ends up creating a directory structure like this:
target
repository-TIMESTAMP
/file1
/file2
/folder1
/file3
I want it to not copy the repository folder.

try with =
<!-- // Properties -->
<property name="copysrc" value="C:/source" />
<property name="copytarget" value="C:/target" />
<!-- Properties // -->
<target name="main">
<!-- get name of the repository folder ... -->
<dirset dir="${copysrc}" includes="repos*" id="reposdir" />
<copy todir="${copytarget}" overwrite="true" verbose="true">
<!-- and take the reposdir as root of your fileset -->
<fileset dir="${copysrc}/${toString:reposdir}" includes="**/**" />
</copy>
</target>
gives you =
[copy] Copying 4 files to C:\target
[copy] Copying C:\source\repository-Timestamp\file2\foobar.txt to
C:\target\file2\foobar.txt
[copy] Copying C:\source\repository-Timestamp\file1\foo.txt to
C:\target\file1\foo.txt
[copy] Copying C:\source\repository-Timestamp\folder1\file3\fooo.txt to
C:\target\folder1\file3\fooo.txt
[copy] Copying C:\source\repository-Timestamp\folder1\foobaz.txt to
C:\target\folder1\foobaz.txt
