Hello

I have a directory named include. It contains files and sub-directories.
In a makefile, I want to copy all the files from include to a sibling directory, 
include.99, but not the sub-directories.
Here is the screen output from the make:

cp -pf include/* include.99;
cp: include/RCS: omitting directory
cp: include/sccs.old: omitting directory
*** Error code 1

Why does your cp util return an error code of 1?
There is no error here. The "omitting" messages should just be warnings.
This is making my make fail!

P.S.

Your man page for cp does not list the return values.
