[news.eclipse.technology.subversive] [Branch/Tag] Doesn't work correctly, when branch/tag is created from other branch/tag

Hi,

steps to reproduce:

reposity structure:

someproject /
            |
            trunk /
                  |
                  somedir /
                  otherdir /
                  somefile
            |
            branches /
                     |
                     1.0.1p1 / 1.0.0 /
                                     |
                                     somedir /
                                     otherdir /
                                     somefile
            |
            tags /
                 |
                 1.0.0 /
                       |
                       somedir /
                       otherdir /
                       somefile


Suppose, that I create tag from working copy tags/1.0.0, now very offten happend me, that i have some trivial bug in my
tag (in svn book is recommended to create branch from this tag, repair simple error and create new tag from this
branch). Very offten I forget uncomment e.g. DEBUG contant or something similar.

So i switch to tags/1.0.0 and try to create branch from this tag â branches/1.0.0p1 and here the problem is, the
structure of created branch is like above example. When I switch to this branch branches/1.0.0p1, my working copy will
be corrupted, beacuse all my dirs and files will be in dir 1.0.0 and when i try switch to e.g. trunk/, so it's really
calamity.

How should I handle this problem ?
