SVN copy issue

[David Corbin <dc...@machturtle.com>]

I could have confused myself, but it looks to me like this command:

svn copy svn://piano/repo/trunk svn://piano/repo/tags/v1.2

will create a 'trunk' folder inside svn://piano/repo/tags/v1.2

That isn't what I want.  I want all of the trunk contents to be underneath 
v1.2.

Am I wrong? How can I do this?

It's probably simplest to "svn rm svn://piano/repo/tags/v1.2" first and
then "svn copy svn://piano/repo/trunk svn://piano/repo/tags/v1.2" again.

If "tags/v1.2" already exists, a directory "trunk" will be created  
inside it.

If "tags/v1.2" does not yet exist, it will be created with the  
contents of "trunk".

This behavior matches the Unix "cp" command.
