=== You must specify <Recursive>1</Recursive> in order to copy files in subdirectories. There are ways to avoid traversing into particular subdirectories, which will be documented at a later time.
=== If destination is an absolute path, copy files to that path.
Source: docs/*.*
Destination: \\fileserver\share\dir
Copy docs/*.* to \\fileserver\share\dir
=== If the destination ends with a slash, that's a new directory structure.
Source: docs/*.*
Destination: docs2/foo/
Copy docs/*.* to docs2/foo/
=== If the destination doesn't end with a slash, and the source maps to one file, assume rename.
Source: docs/one.txt
Destination: docs2/foo/two.txt
Copy docs/one.txt to docs2/foo/txt
=== If Source ends with a slash, keep the rightmost directory name
Source: foo/docs/
Destination: baf
Copy foo/docs/*.* to baf/docs directory (losing foo level)
=== If Destination is not provided, and source ends with a slash, use the rightmost directory only as the destination
Source: foo/docs/
Copy foo/docs/*.* to docs directory
=== If the Source does not end with a slash, drop all of the source directories
Source: docs/*.*
Destination: foo
Copy docs/*.* to foo directory
=== If KeepDirectoryStructure is specified, leave the source path alone
Source: foo/docs
<KeepDirectoryStructure>1</KeepDirectoryStructure>
Copy foo/docs/*.* to foo/docs directory
Source: foo/docs
Destination: grover/
<KeepDirectoryStructure>1</KeepDirectoryStructure>
Copy foo/docs/*.* to foo/docs/grover directory
=== Append one Destination to another
<Destination>joe/</Destination>
<Filespec>foo.bar
<Destination>sue/</Destination>
</Filespec>
Copy foo.bar to joe/sue/foo.bar
