*Only* on commit?

I assume we still do the updating on commit, but now also on copying/moving? (Otherwise we have a pretty major issue here)

Most likely we also normalize newlines then.

(Mark: AnkhSVN is immune for this class of issues, as me move the real file away when performing the subversion commands, and we move it back after the subversion command completed. And we make sure the rest of VS is unaware of the file changing at that time).
