The file would never be in the same directory, that wouldn't make any sense.

Example:

I want to copy the file /mnt/g/blender/projects/raider_ship_3000_frame_test_run.blend

And I want to copy the file to my current directory /mnt/backup

I just don't want type the file file name.

1) it's boring.
2) Introducing typos is easy.

And I'm working with a lot of files.
the cp command 'assumes' the current directory to be the destination directory if not specified, I'm just asking if the file name can be assumed to be the same if not specified.

gitmount

gitmount(1)						      General Commands Manual						       gitmount(1)

NAME

       gitmount - GNU Interactive Tools - auto-mount script

SYNTAX

       gitmount device

DESCRIPTION

       gitmount  is a script which allows you to mount any block device without specifying the file system type.  You may now insert the floppy in
       the drive and type  ' gitmount fd0' and the first floppy will be mounted in the directory /mnt/fd0.  On Linux just press F11 or	F12.   You
       don't need to know the file system type anymore. The directories /mnt/fd0 and /mnt/fd1 are created if they don't exist.
