Re: [Subclipse-users] No history after refactoring

The problem here is that you did two moves before a commit. Once was a
move, and once was a re-name. They are both done the same way in
subversion. However, the first one did a copy+delete, and the second one
did a copy+delete also, however the file that it copied didn't exist in the
repository, so it didn't have any history to copy. If you are moving or
renaming files and want to keep the history you should commit them after
each move/rename. This will preserve the history.
