In subversion, moves are a copy, followed by the deletion of the original; the copy is history-preserving. Somewhat, just tried the basic experiment again...
Which client ?
That would be TortoiseSVN as you mention below :-)
The history that the file was copied from another version is kept. But viewing the history before the move is not possible without looking up the previous files history which is really hard as the file is now deleted.
Well, we've done massive code-reordering recently and I can "svn log" all the way back to revision 2 of 38000+ from my working copy. svn does all lookups behind the scene. It's most likely a client problem...
When using TortoiseSVN you have to manually disable the "stop on copy/rename" button on the log page.
Gota love, not, the terrible interface choices people make. I was using the revision graph tool which has no such option even though it's the same procedure than the log tool. I use the rev graph a lot as it's the clearest UI representation of version control systems. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo
