No, Subversion doesn't magically generates "changes" in your working copy to unrelated folders, files or properties which you didn't change in any way. > Then when branch needs to reintegrate to the new renamed trunk, would it > work because mergeinfo is pointing to old trunk name from branch > perspective ? I may be wrong but from my understanding reintegration looks from the target perspective, meaning if you want to reintegrate a branch into a trunk, trunk is checked for all versions from the branch which may already have been applied. That's way TortoiseSVN e.g. gives an error if not all changes from trunk have been merged into the branch after it's branching. After renaming the trunk you could merge the rename as record only to your branch and should be able to reintegrate afterwards. How that works of course depends on the changes between your new trunk and the branch to reintegrate.
