How to avoid " cp: overwrite " while copying

While you copy some directory or files it will prompt " cp: overwrite " as shown below.

# cp -rf /some/file/or/directory/* /another/location
cp: overwrite `./some/files/yyy'?

 If there is lot of files, it will hard to do. So to avoid this, just put "\" before the command cp

# \cp -rf /some/file/or/directory/* /another/location

This will eliminate the interactive mode.
