Patch available

Hi,

I have written a small patch to 'mv', I would like to contribute this back.

The purpose is to suppress error messages when copying files to an smb
share (ie a directory mounted from a microsoft box). The options stop
'mv' attempting to 'chown' and 'chmod' the file.

The error was benign in that it worked anyway, but resulted in messages going
on to stderr -- which I don't want to >/dev/null in case there are more 
interesting
errors reported.

I am happy to prepare this as a patch and send it to you.

Questions:

1) What format would you like the patch in
2) What version of source would you like the patch against, and where should I 
get this from.
3) I would like to document my patch, I am unsure which file to add a 
description
   to, it looks like fileutils.texi but ... please let me know.

Cheers
