Subject: How to overwrite while doing recursive copy

Hi,

I've been trying to use FileUtils to recursively copy files from 1 dir
to another, but it fails due to permission problems.

FileUtils.cp_r( "C:/source_dir/.", "C:/dest_path", :preserve => true )

If possible I'd like to not delete the contents of the destination
folder and retain permissions of any files I'm not overwriting.  Seems
strange to me that FileUtils.cp_r doesn't take the :force option.

Thanks
