path missing in file provided for typing the log message

Using subversion (version 0.37.0 (r8509) from the debian distribution) I
found an inconsistence:

After the following commands:

        /tmp$ svnadmin create repo

        /tmp$ svn co file:///tmp/repo wc
        Checked out revision 0.

        /tmp$ cd wc

        /tmp/wc$ mkdir dir

        /tmp/wc$ echo content > dir/file

        /tmp/wc$ svn add dir
        A dir
        A dir/file

        /tmp/wc$ svn ci -m ''
        Adding dir
        Adding dir/file
        Transmitting file data .
        Committed revision 1.

        /tmp/wc$ echo "more content" >> dir/file

the file loaded in my editor, if I type 'svn ci' looks like this:

        ------>8-----

        --This line, and those below, will be ignored--

        M dir/file
        ------>8-----

It looks identical, if I check in with 'cd dir; svn ci'.

But using 'svn ci dir/file' results in:

        ------>8-----

        --This line, and those below, will be ignored--

        M file
        ------>8-----

I don't think this intentional, is it?

Uwe
