Oh yes, that was purely a client-side problem, which was fixed by the better capabilities of WC-NG. In theory the client could just as well translate the above series of commands into a simple modification, instead of a replace with history (copied from itself). But that doesn't happen in practice :-). Anyway, I guess this is getting off topic for this thread ... -- Johan >> [1] http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3429 - "svn mv >> A B; svn mv B A" generates replace without history
