that's not what I want (or need) as a behaviour. URL-based deletes and moves
need network access. I want to reduce those to as less as possible (some
guys
still have dial-up).
But I think it wouldn't be much work to change the functions to behave so
that
if the 'source' file of the operation is not there anymore but present in
the .svn
directory that then the operation would execute successfully. SubVersion
would just have to ignore the errors 'file not found'...
