intellij duplicate entire project and rename it

In Eclipse I simply right click on a project I am working on choose copy and paste with a new name. I have not found an easy way to do this in intellij as it appears that there are configurations all over the project folder that have to be found and renamed. This is way too much work and time to do by hand. Am I missing something?
