> Cannot --copy-from app with same name prefix as target from same directory
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-6823
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6823
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CLI
> Affects Versions: 3.5.0
> Reporter: Michal Mocny
> Assignee: Michal Mocny
> Priority: Minor
>
> 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.
