Hi busybox experts,


We have use case where we want to copy attributes from one file/folder to another file/folder,

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/20645/clone-ownership-and-permissions-from-another-file


<https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/20645/clone-ownership-and-permissions-from-another-file>busybox version of chown doesn't support --reference argument,


So my questions are


  1.  Is there an alternative like "chown --reference" in busybox.
  2.  Is there a plan to add "--reference" option to chown in busybox ?


Thank you,


Regards,

Ankur
