Re: [9fans] cpdir

[erik quanstrom <quanstro@coraid.com>]

i still don't understand why this doesn't duplicate the
functionality of disk/mkfs.  according to the comment in mkfs.c

*	name: cpdir
*	version: 1.5e
*	date: 2005/02/19
*	os: plan9 v4
*	usage: cpdir [-mstugvR] [-l file] srcdir dstdir [path ...]
*		srcdir: source directory
*		dstdir: destination directory
*		path: path to copy. file or directory.
*	options:
*		-m:	merge (this option is used if dstdir is already exist)
*		-u: copy owner info.
*		-g: copy groupe info.
*		-v: verbose
*		-R: remove redundant files in destination
*		-s: safe mode in removing files; just renames foo to _foo
*		-t: ignore mtime
*		-l file: path list and pattern list file
*
*	path or pattern list is a file that contains path or pattern per line.
