+## DESCRIPTION
+
+This policy can be used to copy files from a source repository to a local file
+
+
+Here is a basic example of a configuration
+
+```values.yaml
+
+src:
+  url: "https://github.com/updatecli/updatecli.git"
+  branch: "main"
+
+files:
+  - src: .golangci.yml
+    dst: .golangci.yml
+  - src: _typos.toml
+    dst: _typos.toml
+  - src: codecov.yaml
+    dst: codecov.yaml
+  - src: .gitignore
+    dst: .gitignore
+```
+
+Then you can execute this policy running:
+
+```
+updatecli diff --values values.yaml ghcr.io/updatecli/policies/updatecli/copy:latest
+```
