  $ hg st -AC foo

Trying to copy on top of an existing file fails,
  $ hg copy -A bar foo
  foo: not overwriting - file already committed
  (hg copy --after --force to replace the file by recording a copy)
same error without the --after, so the user doesn't have to go through
two hints:
  $ hg copy bar foo
  foo: not overwriting - file already committed
  (hg copy --force to replace the file by recording a copy)
but it's considered modified after a copy --after --force
  $ hg copy -Af bar foo
  $ hg st -AC foo
  M foo

The hint for a file that exists but is not in file history doesn't
mention --force:
  $ touch xyzzy
  $ hg cp bar xyzzy
  xyzzy: not overwriting - file exists
  (hg copy --after to record the copy)
