This is tooting my own horn a little here, but this situation annoyed
me enough that I wrote a small 'svn ci' wrapper script. Bascially, I
designed it to behave exactly like 'svn ci' (all the same options,
etc), only it allows you to delete out files from inside your editor
that you do not want to commit.

I am using it at work along with about a dozen other developers and it
seems to work well. I do think there are a few tweaks that I haven't
put into the public version yet, but it should be pretty easy to do if
there is interest. You can check it out at:
