This commit corrects the behavior of `cp -r --parents --verbose` when
the source path is a directory, so that it prints the copied ancestor
directories. For example,
$ mkdir -p a/b/c d
$ cp -r --verbose --parents a/b/c d
a -> d/a
a/b -> d/a/b
'a/b/c' -> 'd/a/b/c'
This commit corrects the behavior of `cp --parents --verbose` when the
source path is a file so that it prints the copied ancestor
directories. For example,
$ mkdir -p a/b d
$ touch a/b/c
$ cp --verbose --parents a/b/c d
a -> d/a
a/b -> d/a/b
'a/b/c' -> 'd/a/b/c'
Fixes#3332.
Prevent a panic in `cp -a` when the target of a hard link already
exists in the target directory structure.
For example,
$ mkdir -p src dest/src
$ touch src/f dest/src/f
$ ln src/f src/link
$ cp -a src dest
The `cp` command now succeeds without error.
Summary:
* Disable test_retry6 on android because of intermittent failures
* Use wait() instead of wait_with_output in test_cat, test_cp, test_sort
* tests/sort: Simplify usage of test_sigpipe_panic
* Fix tests in test_tee.
tests/tac:
There was a change in the `tests/common/util.rs` test api concerning piped input which may have
revealed a bug in the implementation of tac. Please see also
https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/4136
Correct the behavior of `cp --reflink=never --sparse=always` so that
it performs a sparse copy. Before this commit, it was incorrectly
performing a dense copy.
Implement the `--copy-contents` option when the source is a FIFO, so
that the contents of the FIFO are copied (when the bytes become
available for reading) instead of the FIFO object itself. For example,
$ mkfifo fifo
$ cp --copy-contents fifo outfile &
[1] 1614080
$ echo foo > fifo
$ cat outfile
foo
[1]+ Done cp --copy-contents fifo outfile
Fix the behavior of `cp` when both `--backup` and `--force` are
specified and the source and destination are the same file. Before
this commit, `cp` terminated without copying and without making a
backup. After this commit, the copy is made and the backup file is
made. For example,
$ touch f
$ cp --force --backup f f
results in a backup file `f~` being created.
Change `cp` to terminate with an error when attempting to copy through
a dangling symbolic link with the `--force` option. Before this
commit,
touch src
ln -s no-such-file dest
cp -f src dest
would incorrectly replace `dest` with the contents of `src`. After
this commit, it correctly fails with the error message
cp: not writing through dangling symlink 'dest'
Fix a bug where `cp` failed to copy ancestor directories when using
the `--parents` option. For example, before this commit:
$ mkdir -p a/b/c d
$ cp --parents a/b/c d
$ find d
d
d/c
After this commit
$ mkdir -p a/b/c d
$ cp --parents a/b/c d
$ find d
d
d/a
d/a/b
d/a/b/c
This commit also adds the correct messages for `--verbose` mode:
$ cp -r --parents --verbose a/b/c d
a -> d/a
a/b -> d/a/b
'a/b/c' -> 'd/a/b/c'
Fixes#3332.
Make cp preserve the permissions of a directory when copying
it. Before this commit,
cp -pR src/ dest/
failed to copy the permissions of `src/` to `dest/`. After this
commit, the permissions are correctly copied.
Correct the error message produced when attempting to copy a directory
into itself with `cp`. Before this commit, the error message was
$ cp -R d d
cp: cannot copy a directory, 'd', into itself, 'd'
After this commit, the error message is
$ cp -R d d
cp: cannot copy a directory, 'd', into itself, 'd/d'
Allow `cp --remove-destination` to remove a symbolic link loop (or a
symbolic link that initiates a chain of too many symbolic
links). Before this commit, if `loop` were a symbolic link to itself,
then
cp --remove-destination file loop
would fail with an error message. After this commit, it succeeds. This
matches the behaviotr of GNU cp.
`cp` in interactive mode used to write to stdout asking for
overwrite. GNU version writes to stderr.
Changed: write to stderr to make compatible with GNU.
* test/cp: -p changes ctime and added sleep for better timestamp testing
* test/cp: add nanoseconds checking for copied timestamps
* test/cp: made compilable on other OSes
* test/cp: added error messages to assert_eq calls
