Performance improvement suggestion for copy files

[moshfeu]

Hi,
It looks like 'copy file' is not as fast as it need to be. Right now I am trying to copy a file from my local folder to compared folder but it is taking so much time. I think it is because after each copy folders are re-compared. But we just need to remove copied file from view to make it more efficient.

copyToFolder(uri: Uri, direction: 'to-compared' | 'to-me') {
    try {
      const [folder1Path, folder2Path] = pathContext.getPaths();
      const [from, to] =
        direction === 'to-compared' ? [folder1Path, folder2Path] : [folder2Path, folder1Path];
      const { root, dir, base } = path.parse(from);
      const pathWithoutSchema = dir.replace(root, '');
      const fileCopiedRelativePath = uri.fsPath.replace(pathWithoutSchema, '').replace(base, '');
      const fromPath = path.join(from, fileCopiedRelativePath);
      const toPath = path.join(to, fileCopiedRelativePath);
      copySync(fromPath, toPath);
      this.refresh(false);
    } catch (error) {
      log(error);
    }
  }

Thanks @noumanhabib, you're right, updating only the ui without running another compare is faster
I thought that copying files is a good opportunity to make sure the comparison is up to date and the comparison shouldn't take long anyway.

Does the comparison taking a long time?
