> 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.
