I've just accidently obliterated my /bin/sh. According to

Anyone know where I can download a new copy of this file for Mac OS X
10.1.3?
This is off-topic for this list, but:
As of 10.1.3, /bin/sh is exactly the same as /bin/zsh. So just copy
/bin/zsh to /bin/sh. You could also make a hard link (man ln for
details), but apparently that isn't the way that things are installed by
default (*). You might also want to set the permissions as seen below.
% ls -li /bin/sh /bin/zsh
32306 -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 449616 Jan 29 12:01 /bin/sh*
32436 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 449616 Jan 29 12:01 /bin/zsh*
* I don't really understand how hard links are implemented on HFS+, so I
don't know if the fact that these two files are shown as having
different inode numbers means what I think it means.
