+       Change the rules governing when mv prompts before removing an
+       existing destination file so it is consistent with POSIX:
+       Now, in the absence of --force (-f), if stdin is a tty and an
+       existing destination is not writable mv will prompt before
+       overwriting the destination file.
+
+       * src/copy.c (overwrite_prompt): New function.
+       (copy_internal): Separate the mv-specific and non-move_mode code
+       that determines whether to prompt the user.
+       [move_mode]: Don't make mv fail (i.e. don't return 1) just because
+       the user declined to remove one or more of the files.
+       * src/copy.h (enum Interactive): New type.
+       (struct cp_options) [interactive]: Change type to Interactive.
+       (struct cp_options) [stdin_tty]: New member.
+       * src/cp.c (cp_option_init): Adjust initialization of `interactive',
+       and initialize new member, stdin_tty.
+       * src/mv.c (cp_option_init): Likewise.
+       * src/install.c (cp_option_init): Likewise.
+       * src/cp.c (main): Adjust initialization(s) of `interactive',
+       * src/mv.c (main): Likewise.
