<files> wont put files in top level directory

                 Key: MASSEMBLY-144
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-144
             Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.1
         Environment: Windows XP using maven 2.0.4.  I think I am using 
assembly 2.1 as that is the only version I could find in my ~/.m2 directory.
            Reporter: Alan Kent
            Priority: Minor


I am relatively new to Maven so hopefully this is not a silly mistake, but the 
following assembly XML file will NOT include the TODO.txt file.  If you put the 
file into a subdirectory (using <outputDirectory>a/b/c</outputDirectory> or by 
setting <includeBaseDirectory>true</includeBaseDirectory>) then the file will 
appear in the ZIP file.  This is at least non-intuitive, but feels like a bug 
to me.

<assembly>
  <id>bug-example</id>
  <formats>
    <format>zip</format>
  </formats>
  <includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>
  <files>
    <file>
      <source>TODO.txt</source>
      <outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
    </file>
  </files>
</assembly>
