Issue 1259 - Changes inside a moved directory cause the commit to fail

From: Shlomi Fish <shlomif_at_vipe.stud.technion.ac.il>
Date: 2003-07-15 12:47:50 CEST

In this issue if we svn move directory "moved-from" to "moved-to" and then
make modifications inside moved-to (like adding a file or svn moving a
sub-dir), then the commit in the upper directory fail.

Check:

http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1259

I'm trying to see if I can resolve this issue. There are two approaches
one can take. One is to block modifications to the renamed directory until
a comment is made. The other is to allow such modifications and somehow
resolve them at commit time.

The first approach would be easier to implement (I think), but the second
approach may be better from the usability POV.

What do you say?
