- Subject: problem with cp -pdRvu
Hi,
I used to update directories using
cp -pdRvu
which worked fine. But since the last update I made the -p option causes
troubles. Some files are copied even if they are definitely not newer
than the destination file. Example:
$ cp -pdRvu backups.txt test.txt
`backups.txt' -> `test.txt'
$ cp -pdRvu backups.txt test.txt
`backups.txt' -> `test.txt'
Any clue? It's on Win2k, NTFS file system.
regards,
hubert
