Copy file rather than copy directory

If I copy a directory I create a 'tag' and the files in that tag are at the
same revision as in the original directory.
If I copy a file into a tag directory I get a new revision number on the
file - not the same revision number as in the source directory.
What is different about copying a file to add to a tag as opposed to copying
a directory?
Is there an implication for the size of the repository?
