The question is not that we can work around the issue, the question is, why Subversion can't do this for us? I can add my own case to this list. http://subversion.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=1065&dsMessageId=1850347 I can understand that it's not easy to track deletes/copies forward, but tracking history from creation time to deletion(renamind implies deletion) time should be possible IMO. And this should be possible without user's guesswork. It's fairly simple to find correct revision range in repository with 40 commits. In repository with 40,000 commits things became "a bit" scary. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 27.11.2010, <22:30> Sorry for my terrible english...
