Thanks, but is -p essential for this test to pass, or can we get
away with just -R?


Besides, when you spot a potential problem, please ask git grep
to catch them all.

   $ git grep cp -a t/
   t/t5400-send-pack.sh:   cp -a parent child 
   t/t5550-http-fetch.sh:  cp -a
   .git$HTTPD_DOCUMENT_ROOT_PATH/repo.git 
t/t5800-remote-helpers.sh:  cp -a server server2 



There's 2 more places in Documentation/git-tutorial.txt. There it looks like 
we'd want to use 'cp -pR' instead


Bye, Jojo

In other words, how about doing this instead?

Subject: tests: cp -a is a GNUism

These tests just wants a bit-for-bit identical copy; they do not
need -H (there is no symbolic link involved) nor -p (there is no
funny permission or ownership issues involved).  Just use cp -R
instead.

This works.  I was responding to a failing test so I didn't look for
other instances.  Clearly I should have...I must not be exercising
those other tests.

I actually was planning to pass the blame to you so I'll re-queue it
under your Author: name, with S-o-b.

Thanks.
