Any way to copy folds to a copied file?
Example: file1 has several folds, now I create a new file cp file2 newfile. newfile doesn't have folds that I had created in vim, of course it won't as cp and vim are different commands.
Any way to copy folds of file1 to newfile?
You can use :saveas (less manipulations then with :mkview/loadview)
It will make a copy of your file and its view into a new file with its own view.
You original file and view will be left untouched.
:edit original.md
:saveas copy.md
The only downside is that if you have file marks (A-Z), they will be moved (not copied, moved) to your new file.

:help mkviewand:help loadviewmkviewandloadvieware for saving and loading folds of one file. Here, my question is to copy fold of one file to other file.mkviewcreates a file inviewdirwhich identifies the folds (among other things) of a specific view. What you can do is load this file from another view
