I am confused about this, I think the last test case should be like this below? But this is what are you going to fix?
I made a test in my command line:
My
cp
version iscp (GNU coreutils) 8.30
.There was a problem hiding this comment.

You are right, the behavior of
cp
is different. Note that tat is not just for the last test case but also the penultimate. Essentially, the last directory in thepath
is kept. One would have to docp -r relative/sub/* target_d
to achieve what is currently suggested by the test.I think the docstring of
copytree
is consistent with the implemented behavior. It is just that my commit message regarding the parallel withcp
is incorrect. I am wondering if that should be the behavior though. I am actually mirroring the behavior ofshutil.copytree
. If you runshutil.copytree('relative/sub', 'target_d')
, it would simply createtarget_d
and copy the filec
into it. Which is whatRepository.copy_tree
currently does.Also, if we were to emulate the
cp
behavior, then I am not sure what someone would have to do if they didn't want to keep thesub
directory. Incp
you would a glob, but that is not supported in the Python API.So in short, I think we should keep the current implementation but I correct the commit message saying that it mirrors
shutil.copytree
and remove the mention ofcp
. Would that work?There was a problem hiding this comment.

Sounds good to me. I'll continue to review along this line. Thanks for the explanation!
