Thanks for the patch. I plan to fix this problem, alongside with the
need for different echo messages in the real case vs. dry-run case
("Copying some/file" in the real case vs. "Copy some/file" in the
dry-run case), by using a variable $dry whose value is either ':' or 'false'.
So that one case write
   $dry && echo something
but also
   if $dry; then dosomething; fi
