Is this the same reason why I get a similar error when trying to
get diffs for a revision where the folder has since been renamed?

i.e., there was a file a/b/c in my repository. It was changed in
r5432, latter, in r9432 it was renamed to x/b/c. When I do show
log on it, and go back to r5432 and try to see the changes made
in that revision, I get:

   File note found: revision 18567, path 'a/b/c'

which is of course true since a/b/c hasn't exist since r9432.

Thanks,

Joseph
