svn copy oddness

From: Gale, David <David.Gale_at_Hypertherm.com>

While testing, I encountered the following unexpected behavior:

I'd checked out the root of a test repository with trunk and branches
subdirectories; from the trunk directory, I tried the following:

# svn cp . ../branches/branch1/
svn: Cannot copy path '.' into its own child '../branches/branch1'

The trunk and branches directories are at the same level in the
directory structure--they're siblings, not children. As far as I can
tell, this command should've worked. Anyone know why it didn't? Is
this an issue that ought to be filed in the tracker?

(using svn 1.3.1)
