Comment(by jhpalmieri):

 #7407 provides the following link, saying that it describes the only
 options to "cp" which should be used:

 [http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/cp.html]

 Reading this, I wonder if we should use "cp -pR" instead of "cp -pr".

 I made a new clone, applied the patch, built the documentation, and then
 made another clone.  The new cloning process took 2-3 minutes on my iMac
 running OS X 10.6, and when done the documentation did not need to be
 rebuilt again.  On sage.math, the same thing happened, with the cloning
 process taking about the same amount of time.  In both cases, updating the
 modification times was quick.  Also in both cases, using "cp -pR" worked
 just as well as "cp -pr".

 Shall we take the cited web page as enough evidence that this is cross-
 platform?  And should we change "r" to "R"?
