Description John Arthorne CLA 2012-03-15 16:01:17 EDT 
Our current HTTP API for files allows creation of a file based on some source URL:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Orion/Server_API/File_API#Copying_a_file_or_directory

Our current implementation assumes the source file is on the same domain, but we could generalize this to support arbitrary URL source. See DirectoryHandlerV1.java#performCopyMove where it calls resolveSourceLocation(request, location).
