This is really an Eclipse issue, although I do not believe they consider
this a
bug. As a Team Provider, Subclipse implements a Team API called the
MoveDeleteHook. Eclipse then tells us when a file is deleted so that we
run svn
delete. That is what is happening here. It is impossible for us to know
that
this should not really be a delete. What need to happen is for Eclipse to
not
tell us it is a delete.
Subclipse does support a Subversion property named DeferFileDelete. You
can set
this in one of your project folders and it makes our MoveDeleteHook not
run the
svn delete command when Eclipse tells us a file is deleted. So that fixes
this
problem. If you have this property set and you really delete a file, then
all
you have to do is bring up the Commit dialog. The file will show as
status
"missing" and if you select it as part of the Commit, it will be
committed. You
can also mark the file as deleted from the Show Pending Operations view.
