I doubt it's documented anywhere, but I think the reasoning might be
that in the first case, you were explicit about what file you were
checking in, so Subversion didn't provide the directory. In the second
case, Subversion got the implicit '.' as the target and did a
recursive scan for files that needed to be commited. In this second
case, to remove ambiguity, it added the directory to the beginging. Or
at least, that's my best guess of what went on.
