Eller måske "man cp"? :

       (Thus, if /a is a directory, then `cp -r /a /b' will  copy
       /a  to  /b/a  and  /a/x  to  /b/a/x in case a directory /b
       existed already, but it will copy /a to  /b  and  /a/x  to
       /b/x  if there was no /b beforehand, while it will fail in
       case there was an ordinary file /b.)
