Re: Incorrect LastChangedRev in working copy after committing directory move + modified file in subdir

Anyway the URL of every file should be updated, shouldn't it?
At least there is an inconsistency, shown by the following script:

------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

set -ex

svn --version

mkdir my-test-svn
cd my-test-svn

svnadmin create svn
root=file://`pwd`/svn
svn co "$root" wc
cd wc

svn mkdir dir1
svn ci -m 'add dir1'

printf '\044Header\044\n' > dir1/file
svn add dir1/file
svn ps svn:keywords Header dir1/file
svn ci -m 'add dir1/file'
cat dir1/file
svn cat "$root/dir1/file_at_2"

svn up
svn mv dir1 dir2
svn ci -m 'mv dir1 dir2'
svn info dir2/file
cat dir2/file
svn cat "$root/dir2/file_at_3"

cd ../..
rm -rf my-test-svn
------------------------------------------------------------

The output ends with:

+ cat dir2/file
$Header: file:///tmp/my-test-svn/svn/dir1/file 2 2012-07-04 11:57:43Z vlefevre $
+ svn cat file:///tmp/my-test-svn/svn/dir2/file_at_3
$Header: file:///tmp/my-test-svn/svn/dir2/file 2 2012-07-04 11:57:43Z vlefevre $

file:///tmp/my-test-svn/svn/dir1/file_at_2 exists but this isn't the
real URL of the file.

file:///tmp/my-test-svn/svn/dir2/file_at_2 doesn't exist.

IMHO, the most intuitive Header string should have

  file:///tmp/my-test-svn/svn/dir2/file 3

(correct URL, and a revision that is valid for this URL).

Full output attached.
