Comment (by dabrahams):

 The comment at that point in the code is pretty clear on why it copies, I
 think.  It makes modifications in that directory.

 I believe when you tell buildbot to reconfig it does a checkconfig first
 and if that fails, it keeps running as-is.  I don't think you can do that
 if you let checkConfig stomp on the directory.

 I always wanted to be able to check in my buildbot config and maintain a
 clean directory w.r.t. VCS, but I suppose that's a different feature
 request… though implementing it might be enough to eliminate the need for
 copying on checkconfig
