Summary
  • Make to.base large enough to hold a trailing separator.
  • Remove the separator from warning and error messages.
  • In the FILE_TO_FILE case, leave to.base empty.
  • In the FILE_TO_DIR and DIR_TO_DNE cases, append a separator to to.base once we've (optionally created and) opened it.
  • Thus, in the file-to-file case, we print an empty string followed by to.path, while in all other cases, to.base already contains the necessary separator.

This fixes failures in tests that used cp and expected a specific
error message and were surprised to see "./" pop up.
