Copy and paste are not working

[bavo96]

This is my nvim clean and minimal.lua

nvim clean

nvim --clean  \
     --cmd 'set rtp+=~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/nvim-tree.lua' \
     --cmd 'lua require"nvim-tree".setup{
        filters = {
            dotfiles = false,
        },
        disable_netrw = true,
        hijack_netrw = true,
        hijack_cursor = true,
        hijack_unnamed_buffer_when_opening = false,
        sync_root_with_cwd = true,
        update_focused_file = {
            enable = true,
            update_root = true,
        },
 }' \
     -u minimal.lua

minimal.lua

-- auto open nvim-tree when open neovim
local function open_nvim_tree(data)
    -- buffer is a real file on the disk
    local real_file = vim.fn.filereadable(data.file) == 1

    -- buffer is a [No Name]
    local no_name = data.file == "" and vim.bo[data.buf].buftype == ""

    -- only files please
    if not real_file and not no_name then
        return
    end
    -- open the tree but dont focus it
    require("nvim-tree.api").tree.toggle({ focus = false })
    -- Emit BufWinEnter
    vim.api.nvim_exec_autocmds('BufWinEnter', { buffer = require('nvim-tree.view').get_bufnr() })
end
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd(
    { "VimEnter" },
    { callback = open_nvim_tree })

When I press y on a file, it said "copy ... to system clipboard!", but when I press p to a directory, nothing happens and the file isn't copied to that directory. Is that normal ? Right now, only x (cut) and then paste are working.

I found out that y is only copy the name of that file a c is actually copy that file and then I can paste it to somewhere. My mistake because the g? shows both y and c are copy :(

y's help string shows as Copy Name, while c's is just Copy. So there is small distinction. Please open pr if you think that can be easily improved.
