<id>urn:sha1:013d95af11f41cbe05abdb73c997040dce4301f8</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch was written by Jim Meyering and myself.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Turn EISDIR to ENOTDIR to improve the
quality of diagnostics for commands like "cp a nosuch/".  Reported
by Марк Коренберг and Alan Curry in the thread starting at:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2010-11/msg00178.html
* THANKS: Update.
* tests/mv/trailing-slash: Add a test.

<content type='text'>
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Change the description slightly
so as users might not immediately discount using this option.
Mention that --reflink is overridden by the other linking options and
--attributes-only, and give an example where this might be useful.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Bypass the reflink if
--attributes-only is specifed.
* tests/cp/reflink-perm: Ensure both --reflink modes are
overridden by --attributes-only.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
