+ cp -r behavior.
+
+ * src/cp.c (COPY_CONTENTS_OPTION): New enum value.
+ (long_opts): Add --copy-contents.
+ (usage): Describe new behavior. Sort options.
+ (main): Implement new behavior. Remove diagnostics for -a and -r;
+ no longer needed.
+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Remove -r warning; no longer needed.
+
+ * NEWS: Document this.
