Hi,
The "cp -r <src> <dst>" command omits top directory, when the trailing "/" is
present in the <src> string. Here is the test case:
barebox at barebox sandbox:/test mkdir d1
barebox at barebox sandbox:/test echo -o d1/f1 1
barebox at barebox sandbox:/test mkdir d2
barebox at barebox sandbox:/test cd d2
barebox at barebox sandbox:/test/d2 cp -r ../d1/ .
barebox at barebox sandbox:/test/d2 ls
. .. f1
barebox at barebox sandbox:/test/d2 cp -r ../d1 .
barebox at barebox sandbox:/test/d2 ls
. .. d1 f1
barebox at barebox sandbox:/test/d2 version
