Sebb commented on IO-157:
-------------------------
To preserve compatibility, we could just add a new method:
public static File copyToDirectory(File srcFile, File destDir, boolean
preserveFileDate)
which implemented the existing code and could be used internally by the
existing method.
> [FileUtils] Return target File from copyFileToDirectory()

> It would be useful if the FileUtils.copyFileToDirectory() method returned the
> target file to which it does the copy. Currently, it creates the target File
> object, passes it to copyFile(), and discards the reference. This could just
> be returned from the method instead.
