Hi, I was wondering if there’s an option or a function in base that pushes a copy rather than a reference into a collection, similarly to what pushcopy!(collection::AbstractVector, item::AbstractArray) = push!(collection, copy(item)); would do. If not, are there any plans to add it?

Is there such a thing like a pushcopy!(...)?

I don’t think it does with push! - see Using push! for example.
