>> {

>>  let $collections := xdmp:document-get-collections($old-uri)
>>  return xdmp:document-insert(

>>    if ($permissions) then $permissions
>>    else xdmp:default-permissions(),
>>    if ($collections) then $collections
>>    else xdmp:default-collections(),
>>    xdmp:document-get-quality($old-uri)
