Title

The GNU/Linux version of cp has a nice --update flag: -u, --update copy only when the SOURCE file is newer than the destination file or when the destination file is missing The Mac OS X version of cp lacks this flag. What is the best way to get the behavior of cp --update by using built-in system command line programs? I want to avoid installing any extra tools (including the GNU version of cp ).
