What I want is to separate source and build output in a web project.
This is easy enough for the source files themselves, as build output
from them is a single file that I can put anywhere I want. But I also
need to copy all the content files from the source location into the
build output location. Currently I do this using a single copy task:

    <copy todir="${build.web}">
      <fileset>
        <includes name="**\*.aspx"/>
        <includes name="**\*.asax"/>
        <includes name="**\*.asmx"/>
        <includes name="**\*.ashx"/>
        <includes name="**\*.config"/>
      </fileset>
    </copy>

However, if content files are deleted in the source directory, this
isn't reflected in the build output directory. I could delete all the
files and copy them again, but that would be rather more time consuming.

What I would like is something like this:

    <mirror>
      <from basedir="source">
        <includes name="**\*.aspx"/>
        <includes name="**\*.asax"/>
        ...
      </from>
      <into basedir="destination">
        <includes name="**\*.aspx"/>
        <includes name="**\*.asax"/>
        ...
      </into>
    </mirror>

where I could be certain that after the operation, the files matched in
the two sets would be identical.

Kræn,
I'm not quite sure what you are after here. Do you want to copy the 
contents of one fileset into another ? I'm fairly sure that you can't do

that right now. Could be an idea for a new task though
