Description
Ive perhaps missed something, and if so please do tell me,
p.s this is a great package, and I really like using it.
Im trying copy a file from
- remote to local
or - local to remote
It seems like I have to use two different methods
1
fs = fsspec.open(file2).fs
fs.put(file1, file2)
and
fs = fsspec.open(file1).fs
fs.get(file1, file2)
But it would be great just to have one functions that does this. It feels a bit like local is treated slightly different than other file system.
Appolgies if Ive miss understood something,

Research direction
Start by reviewing the demonstrated fsspec.open, fs.put, and fs.get usage to understand how local and remote filesystems are currently selected. Determine the intended single-operation interface for both transfer directions and verify that local-to-remote and remote-to-local copies are covered before adding tests for the resulting behavior.
