I think your version kind of messes up the debug logging. In my
version, every call to copy_file() would emit either "would copy
\"%s\" to \"%s\" using strategy %s" and "copying \"%s\" to \"%s\"
using strategy %s". In your version, the dry_run mode emits a string
similar to the former, but creates separate translatable strings for
each copy method instead of using the same one with a different value
of %s. In non-dry-run mode, I think your version loses the debug
logging altogether.
