Just seen the following code in net/http package, request.go:

func (r *Request) WithContext(ctx context.Context) *Request {
 if ctx == nil {
 panic("nil context")
 }
 r2 := new(Request)
 *r2 = *r
 r2.ctx = ctx
 return r2
}


I'm wondering, if there's any benefit of writing* r2 := new(Request); *r2 = 
*r *rather than shorter *r2 := *r (example below) *or this is just matter 
of style preference?

func (r *Request) WithContext(ctx context.Context) *Request {
 if ctx == nil {
 panic("nil context")
 }
 r2 := *r
 r2.ctx = ctx
 return &r2
}
