The last time i did a massive refactoring, i just used eclipse. That
generated svn mv commands. After committing once, then i back-filled
the missing now deprecated classes.
If you have the patience for the svn cp method, it would have a nicer
history -- but i think either way is fine.

Hi,
I want to rename NamedListCodec to JavaBinCodec but also preserve
the svn
history. I was wondering about the svn sorcery needed to do this and
I don't
want to play with the repository.
Should I
"svn mv NamedListCodec JavaBinCodec" and then commit and then add a
deprecated NamedListCodec.java?
OR
"svn cp NamedListCodec JavaBinCodec", deprecate NamedListCodec and
change
all references in the code to JavaBinCodec?
This is my first time doing such a thing so can a kind soul help me
out? I
promise to update the CommitterInfo wiki with the help I get here.
