I am trying to copy a source code tree using the below code and running into an error,am not sure why I am getting this?error says \\Ref\builds/out exists but it doesnt exist,"out" is the directory the source location that the script is trying to copy to destination,any other ways to do copy if shutil is not suited for this type of copy?
//local/mnt/workspace/04.01_HY11/out
\\Ref\builds/out
