Sorry, my mistake. Should be fixed by this mail...

I would guess, that this might work equally well. But i would try to use "svn
mv" or "svn cp" in the first place. Even if shutils does not know about svn,
I suppose that it is possible to run arbitrary command lines from python ;-)
And just in case: there are python bindings for svn.
But I have no experiences with these bindings or with python at all...
Ciao,
