No. It means that later on, if you run 'svn diff -r1 f2.txt', you won't
get an error about "f2.txt not existing in r1". Instead, the diff
command will trace back through f2.txt's history, discover it was
originally named f1.txt in r1, and use that file for comparison.

This scenario will never work until the client and server have "true"
renames, not just copies+deletes. It's most likely a requirement for
implementing merge-tracking features.
