[jira] [Created] (CB-6823) Cannot --copy-from app with same name prefix as target from same directory

Michal Mocny created CB-6823:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Cannot --copy-from app with same name prefix as target from same directory
                 Key: CB-6823
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6823
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: CLI
    Affects Versions: 3.5.0
            Reporter: Michal Mocny
            Assignee: Michal Mocny
            Priority: Minor


With --copy-from and --link-to we try to protect users targeting a directory which is a direct ancestor, or else we recursively copy/link.

However, there was a bug in the check which also prevented sourcing a sibling which had the exact same prefix.  I.e., if you had:

```
> ls
Test
> cordova create Test2 --copy-from=Test
...
```

You would get an error, because it thought that `Test` was a parent of `Test2` since the fully resolved paths of both are a prefix match.

Instead, I will change this to make sure the actual relative paths are not direct ancestors.
