------------------------------------------------------
I have same trouble. I think this is a bug of commons-io.
When you try to copying a directory from source to sub-directory of source
directory, infinite loop happens.
ex) FileUtils.copy(new File("test"), new File("test/test")):
will fall into infinite loop.
This is why the program copy source include the destination directory.
I change the order of make destination directory and list of source directory.
(attachment)
This will list the files of source directory and create the subdirectory which
is the destination.

> When using FileUtils.copyDirectoryToDirectory, infinite loops has occurred.
