svn copy differs between win and unix
svn copy http://xxxxx/trunk http://xxxxxx/branches/branch-name
When run from windows puts the files in this folder:
http://xxxxxx/branches/branch-name/trunk/
When run on linux puts the files in this folder as expected:
http://xxxxxx/branches/branch-name/
windows svn command line client 1.3.0
linux svn command line client 1.2.3
Just wondering if anybody has noticed this before?
Cheers,
Greg.

Yes that was it. I thought there must be some simple explanation.

That's really unlikely. I believe that what really happened is that, when you
tried under windows, the branch-name directory already existed, so what "cp"
did was to copy "trunk" within it. Instead, when you ran the command under
linux, you didn't have the branch-name directory yet, so the "cp" command
copied "trunk" under "branches" with the new name "branch-name".
