On a properly formatted disk, ditto can be used as a replacement for the BuildDisk program for building bootable OPENSTEP system disks.
Ditto preserves hardlinks present in the source directories and preserves setuid and setgid modes. Ditto can also copy files selectively based on the contents of a BOM ("Bill of Materials") file. Ditto can be used to "thin" multi-architecture binaries during a copy. On the other, ditto does not modify the mode, owner, or group of existing directories in the destination. The resulting files, links, and devices will have the same mode, owner, and group as the source items from which they are copied. Ditto overwrites existing files, symbolic links, and devices in the destination when these are copied from a source. Q: What is an easy way to copy files, directories, or filesystems and retain file ownership, permissions, setuid modes and links?Ī: The ditto command copies a source directory to a destination directory.
