Actually, the two commands *used* to work correctly. 'foo' would be
scheduled for deletion, and 'bar' would be scheduled for (R)eplacement. But
that stopped working. It's issue #845.

One workaround is to make a branch, 'svn rm; svn commit; svn cp; svn
commit' on the branch. Then merge all the branche changes into your
original line of development as a single commit.
