Subject: dired-do-copy does not preserve ownerships
Date: Fri, 14 May 2004 13:20:03 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fza3lh4s.fsf@jidanni.org> (raw)
dired-do-copy, even though it prompts that it is using cp -p,
does not preserve ownerships, at least when root, on Debian.
Real cp -p does. Emacs-version "21.3.1" using --no-site-file -q.
