[az storage azcopy blob download] Expose azcopy's --overwrite parameter #7784

Open

Description

Describe the bug

When using [az storage azcopy blob download] to download a file in blob storage, it would be nice to be able to set the --overwrite parameter of azcopy to be "ifSourceNewer", which will only copy the file if the source is newer than the destination.

--overwrite (string) Overwrite the conflicting files and blobs at the destination if this flag is set to true. (default 'true') Possible values include 'true', 'false', 'prompt', and 'ifSourceNewer'. For destinations that support folders, conflicting folder-level properties are overwritten if this flag is 'true' or if a positive response is provided to the prompt. (default "true")
