How do you move a file?

I'm using TortoiseSVN against the SourceForge SVN repository. I'd like to move a file from one folder to another in order to maintain its revision history. Is this possible? If so, how do you do it?

(My current strategy has been to copy the file into the new folder and check it in and then delete the file from the current folder.)

Solution

  • Subversion has native support for moving files.

    svn move SOURCE DESTINATION

    See the online help (svn help move) for more information.
