.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The file(s) are moved (copied if the
|
|
.Fl c
|
|
option is specified, or linked if the
|
|
.Fl l
|
|
option is specified) to the target file or directory.
|
|
If the destination is a directory, then the
|
|
.Ar file
|
|
is moved into
|
|
.Ar directory
|
|
with its original filename.
|
|
If the target file already exists, it is
|
|
either renamed to
|
|
.Ar file.old
|
|
if the
|
|
.Fl b
|
|
option is given
|
|
or overwritten
|
|
if permissions allow, An alternate backup suffix may be specified via the
|
|
.Fl B
|
|
option's argument.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl b
|
|
Backup any existing files before overwriting them by renaming
|
|
them to
|
|
.Ar file.old . See
|
|
.Fl B
|
|
for specifying a different backup suffix.
|
|
.It Fl B Ar suffix
|
|
Use
|
|
.Ar suffix
|
|
as the backup suffix if
|
|
.Fl b
|
|
is given. If
|
|
.Ar suffix
|
|
contains a '%' sign, a numbered backup will be performed, and the
|
|
%-pattern will be expanded using
|
|
.Xr sprintf 3 ,
|
|
given an integer counter as the backup number.
|
|
The counter used starts from 0, and the first available name resulting
|
|
from the expansion is used.
|
|
.It Fl c
|
|
Copy the file.
|
|
This flag turns off the default behavior of
|
|
.Nm
|
|
where it deletes the original file after creating the target.
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
Specify the target's file flags.
|
|
(See
|
|
.Xr chflags 1
|
|
for a list of possible flags and their meanings.)
|
|
.It Fl g
|
|
Specify a group.
|
|
.It Fl M Ar metalog
|
|
Write the metadata associated with each item installed to
|
|
.Ar metalog
|
|
in an
|
|
.Xr mtree 8
|
|
.Dq full path
|
|
specification line.
|
|
The metadata includes: the file name and file type, and depending upon
|
|
other options, the owner, group, file flags, modification time, and tags.
|
|
.It Fl m
|
|
Specify an alternative mode.
|
|
The default mode is set to rwxr-xr-x (0755).
|
|
The specified mode may be either an octal or symbolic value; see
|
|
.Xr chmod 1
|
|
for a description of possible mode values.
|
|
.It Fl l Ar linkflags
|
|
Instead of copying the file make a link to the source. The type of the
|
|
link is determined by the
|
|
.Ar linkflags
|
|
argument. Valid
|
|
.Ar linkflags
|
|
are:
|
|
.Ar a
|
|
(absolute),
|
|
.Ar r
|
|
(relative),
|
|
.Ar h
|
|
(hard),
|
|
.Ar s
|
|
(symbolic),
|
|
.Ar m
|
|
(mixed). Absolute and relative have effect only for symbolic links. Mixed links
|
|
are hard links for files on the same filesystem, symbolic otherwise.
|
|
.It Fl o
|
|
Specify an owner.
|
|
.It Fl p
|
|
Preserve the source files access and modification times.
|
|
.It Fl r
|
|
Install to a temporary file and then rename the file to its final destination
|
|
name. This can be used for precious files, to avoid truncation of the original
|
|
when error conditions (filesystem full etc.) occur.
|
|
.It Fl s
|
|
.Nm
|
|
exec's the command
|
|
.Xr strip 1
|
|
to strip binaries so that install can be portable over a large
|
|
number of systems and binary types. If the environment variable
|
|
.Ev STRIP
|
|
is set, it is used as the
|
|
.Xr strip 1
|
|
program.
|
|
.It Fl S Ar stripflags
|
|
.Nm
|
|
passes
|
|
.Ar stripflags
|
|
as option arguments to
|
|
.Xr strip 1 .
|
|
When
|
|
.Fl S
|
|
is used,
|
|
.Xr strip 1
|
|
is invoked via the
|
|
.Xr sh 1
|
|
shell, allowing a single
|
|
Fl S
|
|
argument be to specified to
|
|
.Nm
|
|
which the shell can then tokenize. Normally,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
invokes
|
|
.Xr strip 1
|
|
directly. This flag implies
|
|
.Fl s .
|
|
.It Fl T Ar tags
|
|
Specify the
|
|
.Xr mtree 8
|
|
tags to write out for the file when using
|
|
.Fl M Ar metalog .
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
Create directories.
|
|
Missing parent directories are created as required.
|
|
.It Fl U
|
|
Indicate that install is running unprivileged, and that it should not
|
|
try to change the owner, the group, or the file flags of the destination.
|
|
The information that would have been updated can be stored in a log
|
|
file with
|
|
.Fl M Ar metalog.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
preserves all file flags, with the exception of the ``nodump'' flag.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility attempts to prevent moving a file onto itself.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Installing
|
|
.Pa /dev/null
|
|
creates an empty file.
|
|
.Sh EXIT STATUS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility exits 0 on success,
|
|
and >0 if an error occurs.

|
The program used to strip installed binaries when the
