    <thetext>One of the things you would commonly want to cp into a wic image using wic cp is lib/modules/kernel-version.  This would require a recursive copy.
e.g. 
wic cp modules--4.x.x/ wicimage:/lib/modules/</thetext>

    <thetext>the following commits from Daniel Dragomir in oe-core add this feature:

1ed38aff5f81 (&quot;wic/engine: fix copying directories into wic image with ext* partition&quot;)
6de3d2602f4f (&quot;oeqa/selftest/wic: test recursive dir copy on ext partitions&quot;)
cb536737be (&quot;wic/engine: error on old host debugfs for standalone directory copy&quot;)

I need to verify the docs/help have been updated.</thetext>
