file(relative_source, relative_destination, file_options = {}, &block) public

Copy a file from source to destination with collision checking.

The file_options hash accepts :chmod and :shebang and :collision options. :chmod sets the permissions of the destination file:

  file 'config/empty.log', 'log/test.log', :chmod => 0664

:shebang sets the #!/usr/bin/ruby line for scripts

  file 'bin/generate.rb', 'script/generate', :chmod => 0755, :shebang => '/usr/bin/env ruby'

:collision sets the collision option only for the destination file:

  file 'settings/server.yml', 'config/server.yml', :collision => :skip

Collisions are handled by checking whether the destination file exists and either skipping the file, forcing overwrite, or asking the user what to do.
