2004-04-19Dont try and preserve hard links to directories.Glenn L McGrath
The linux kernel doesnt allow hard links to directories, SUS says its implementation specific. cramfs gives empty directories and 0 length files the same node it makies it difficult to distinguish from hard links.
2004-02-22For the time being, revert the changes for detecting copyingEric Andersen
a directory into itself. It is harder to do this correctly than it appears. Not trying at all seems a better compromise for the time being, untill we can implement this correctly.

As Manuel points out, this is a flawed fix, and doesnt fix the following: mkdir -p cpa cpb cpc cp -a cpa cpa/cpb/cpc Attached what appears to be a more sane fix. Apply on top of previous. Please confirm sanity.

I was adding -s/--symbolic-link support to busybox cp when I noticed a bug with -r/-a. Test case: mkdir -p test/out cd test busybox cp -a * out/ Will never return until we run out of open files or similar. Coreutils cp on the other hand will error with "cannot copy a directory, `out', into itself, `out'". Patch attached.
2004-01-11Patch from Matt Kraai to fix debian bug #227081Glenn L McGrath
cp does not truncate existing destinations. That is, after running echo foo > foo echo fubar > fubar cp foo fubar the contents of fubar are foo r instead of foo
2003-12-20Use low level file descriptors to match bb_copyfd_eofGlenn L McGrath
2003-11-21As we no longer use function pointers for read in common archiving codeGlenn L McGrath
archive_xread can be replaced with bb_full_read, and archive_copy_file with bb_copyfd* bb_copyfd is split into two functions bb_copyfd_size and bb_copyfd_eof, they share a common backend.
