Description

The GNU Core Utilities are the basic file, shell and text manipulation utilities of the GNU operating system. These are the core utilities which are expected to exist on every operating system.

Previously these utilities were offered as three individual sets of GNU utilities, fileutils, shellutils, and textutils. Those three have been combined into a single set of utilities called the coreutils.

[This bug was present in "the beginning".] 'cp', 'install', and 'mv' now fall back to a standard copy if a --reflink=auto clone fails due to EDQUOT, ENOMEM, or ENOSPC. E.g., with XFS, a clone can exhaust metadata space in an allocation group, while a standard copy works.
