This patch add a -t switch to install(3). This is a small feature for
lazy sysadmins.
before :
touch /usr/home/foo/.history /usr/home/foo/.bash_history
chown foo /usr/home/foo/.history /usr/home/foo/.bash_history
chmod 600 /usr/home/foo/.history /usr/home/foo/.bash_history
chflags sappend /usr/home/foo/.history /usr/home/foo/.bash_history
after :
install -o foo -g foo -m 600 -f sappend /usr/home/foo/.history
/usr/home/foo/.bash_history
Regards,
Joris
