insufficient help for 'dump' plugin

[Seth Arnold]

Hello; I want to copy from scripts from the build directory of my part through to the final snap. This answer on AskUbuntu shows an easy way to do this: http://askubuntu.com/a/739692/33812 but the "copy" plugin is now apparently deprecated and changing it to "dump" doesn't work:

$ cat snapcraft.yaml
name: sarnold-evil-trinity
version: "1.7pre"

$ snapcraft
Issue while loading plugin: properties failed to load for trinity-scripts-copy: Additional properties are not allowed ('files' was unexpected)

If you change the plugin: dump to plugin: copy, it builds fine.

I tried "snapcraft help dump", but that didn't give me anything concrete, only pointers to "snapcraft help plugins" and "snapcraft help sources". Neither of these is as straightforward as the from-and-to list of the copy plugin.

Thanks
