Steps to reproduce

mkdir test
cd test

mkdir abc
mv * abc

Don't forget to hit ctrl-c fast.

dir -Recurse t shows the created structure. I used 7zip File Manager to shift-del the nested dir structure.

Expected behavior

PS should not create the nested directory structure, it should ignore the target when expanding the wildcard into the source list, move everything else into the target directory.

In this example it should basically do a no-op, since there's nothing else to move into "abc".

Actual behavior

A directory that contains a directory, that contains a directory ... t\abc\abc\abc\abc ...
