Content
I have created a new PR that introduces preserve_security_context argument and changes the default behavior of copy operations. All copy operations behave now similar to "cp -p --preserve=xattr" by default. copy2(src, dst, preserve_security_context=True) restores the old, problematic behavior that is similar to "cp -p --preserve=xattr,context". It's not completely equivalent because I decided to omit all attributes in the restricted "security" xattr namespace. coreutils only handles "security.selinux" on an SELinux enabled system differently.
