Apart from the comment I don't understand, this is good, I think.

| 832 | install() has two modes depending on whether the target is an existing file or non-existent path on the one hand, or an existing directory on the other. In the first case, we use the target name as-is, but in the second we create a file in the target directory with the same name as the source. In the devnull and ispipe cases, however, we don't have a valid name to use for the target. | |

| 832 | To be clear, install() does not create directories, install_dir() does. What flags & DIRECTORY means is that to_name exists and is a directory. | |
