Extra Directory Created #132

Description
BagIt-Version: 0.97
When I run bagit it always creates a tertiary directory:
For example:
C:\Users\smith\Desktop\desktop\bagit-python-master>bagit.py --contact-name 'Stephen' C:\Users\smith\Desktop\project\Appendices
===>
C:\Users\smith\Desktop\project\Appendices
becomes:
C:\Users\sklein\Desktop\project\data\tmpvi4hndq5\Appendices\
Is this a bug?
Will it effect checksum reporting?
If so, how to prevent the creation of this random directory (in this example:\tmpvi4hndq5)
Also, the first time I run bagit:
'C:\Users\smith\Desktop\desktop\bagit-python-master>bagit.py --contact-name 'Stephen' C:\Users\smith\Desktop\project\Appendices'
always fails, so I always have to run the command a second time in the same command prompt.

This is an issue with bagit-python. It should be reported in this repo. https://github.com/LibraryOfCongress/bagit-python
If you repost it there, can you confirm that the bagging command finished processing? Bagit-python uses a temporary folder to simplify some of the processing and file movements, but it should be cleaned up when bagging finishes.

Thanks, Nick. Sorry for my sloppiness.
