In dired-mode when pressing 'C' on a directory to copy it somewhere, it
now only works in case the directory doesn't already exist. Otherwise it fails
with file-already-exists error.
Overwrite mode or not doesn't seem to make any difference.

It seems there's a change in copy-directory where make-directory used to
be called with parents hardcoded to 't'. Now it's not and it thereby
fails.

This used to work in emacs 24.5

Even if the target directory name ends in a slash?

I tried to reproduce this in Emacs 26.3 and failed.  Here's what I
tried:

./src/emacs -Q .

I went to "admin" (a directory) and said:

C //tmp/newdir3 RET yes RET

Then I went to "etc" (another dir) and said:

C //tmp/newdir3 RET yes RET

And I didn't get any errors.

So do you have a step-by-step recipe to reproduce the problem?

Not sure if you missunderstood. This is kind of what I want to achieve
Linux:
> cd /some/directory
> cp -rf sub_directory /tmp/
Make some changes inside sub_directory - and then copy to /tmp again
> cp -rf sub_directory /tmp/

Emacs:
M-x find-file RET /some/directory RET
Move cursor to  sub_directory
'C' and then /tmp/ RET
Will work in case /tmp/sub_directory doesn't exist.
Then press 'C' again and /tmp/ RET
Will now fail. 
Fails in emacs 27 as well.
Haven't tried emacs 25 - but works in 24.5
