Re: [PATCH] t6036: avoid "cp -a"

["Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belón" <carenas@gmail.com>]

Thanks both. Agree with Junio it would be better if squashed; apologize

visible for anyone that care to run the linter:

  $ make test-lint-shell-syntax

Subject: [PATCH] tests: add lint for non portable cp -a

cp -a, while a common flag isn't in POSIX and will therefore fail
on systems that don't have GNUish tools (like OpenBSD, AIX or Solaris)
