The process for using kubectl cp to overwrite a directory is as follows:

  1. Open a terminal window and navigate to the directory where you want to copy files.

  2. Use the kubectl cp command with the --archive flag to copy the directory from the Kubernetes cluster to your local machine. For example:

    kubectl cp <namespace>/<pod-name>:/path/to/directory . --archive

  3. Make changes to the files in the local directory.

  4. Use the kubectl cp command again to overwrite the directory in the Kubernetes cluster with the updated files. Use the --force flag to avoid confirmation prompts. For example:

    kubectl cp . <namespace>/<pod-name>:/path/to/directory --archive --force
