  * Changes in Emacs 22.1
  
+ ** The commands copy-file, rename-file, make-symbolic-link and
+ add-name-to-file, when given a directory as the "new name" argument,
+ convert it to a file name by merging in the within-directory part of
+ the existing file's name.  (This is the same convention that shell
+ commands cp, mv, and ln follow.)  Thus, M-x copy-file RET ~/foo RET
+ /tmp RET copies ~/foo to /tmp/foo.
+ 
  ** C-u M-x goto-line now switches to the most recent previous buffer,
  and goes to the specified line in that buffer.
