Blame old (default) bash, but.. still, would be nice if it worked :)

Hi,
I think the cp --attributes-only fails. It is used only for keep the original attributes of the files, so I think apart from this the functionality seems to be intact.
Maybe you could try with -fr (after creating a backup). Fast mode doesn't rely on "cp --attributes-only".

And could you please send maybe an exact version of your cp?

[igrigorik]

Yep, -fr worked fine. Exact version.. good question: how do I check that? :)

@cihangir It seems my previous (already deleted) comment was wrong. This seems to be more relevant: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11287564/getting-sed-error-illegal-byte-sequence-in-bash
I will add this environment options later.

@igrigorik , @cihangir I just commited a patch to fix the original "illegal option -- -" problem. I don't have access to OSX, so I am not 100% sure it works. Could you please test it? Thank you.

[vlajos]

@cihangir And commited the related envionment variable resets also. Please test it. Thank you.
