cp.c says:
/*
* mastercmp --
* The comparison function for the copy order. The order is to copy
* non-directory files before directory files. The reason for this
* is because files tend to be in the same cylinder group as their
* parent directory, whereas directories tend not to be. Copying the
* files first reduces seeking.

int
mastercmp(const FTSENT **a, const FTSENT **b)
{
int a_info, b_info;
a_info = (*a)->fts_info;
if (a_info == FTS_ERR || a_info == FTS_NS || a_info == FTS_DNR)
return (0);
b_info = (*b)->fts_info;
if (b_info == FTS_ERR || b_info == FTS_NS || b_info == FTS_DNR)
return (0);
if (a_info == FTS_D)
return (-1);
if (b_info == FTS_D)
return (1);
return (0);
}
Doesn't the code actually do the opposite?
If 'a' is a directory, it comes first?
Should that be FTS_F?
