Description

Asset tag appears to be broken in the browser platform. According to the docs at http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/plugin_ref/spec.html#asset when you add an asset tag like:

<asset src="www/foo.js" target="foo.js" />

it should copy www/foo.js to platforms/browser/www/foo.js but instead it creates a subdirectory called foo.js and the full path to the file is platforms/browser/www/foo.js/foo.js.

If you want to duplicate this issue please create a new project then:

cordova platform add browser@5.0.1
cordova plugin add phonegap-plugin-push
cordova build browser

then you will see that platforms/browser/www/ServiceWorker.js/ServiceWorker.js exists when it should be platforms/browser/www/ServiceWorker.js.
