Re: [TSVN] "diff" command in context menu when selecting an added file

Thanks for clarifying my original post. It was indeed a bit confusing
if I read it again...

svn status on such files gives the following output:

A + bar.txt

So the '+' indicates "with history"

After studying the sources a bit more, I learned that Tortoise uses
svn_wc_status_kind to indicate the status of a specific item. The info
"copied with history" is not retrieved.

The svn_wc_status_t has a specific member "copied" which indicates if
an added file was copied with history. I think the "translation" from
svn_wc_status_t to svn_wc_status_kind happens in SVNStatus.cpp,
specifically, in SVNStatus::getallstatus

Is it maybe possible to make use of this "copied" member somehow?
