[Subclipse-users] Extract Interface scenario: Subversion thinks it should delete my interface

There is a refactoring I do in Eclipse (with Subclipse) where I feel like I'm fighting Subversion to accomplish what I'm trying to do, and I'm wondering if there's a better way to do it.

Suppose I have a class named Foo that does not implement an interface; it just does the work itself. Now after Foo.java has been committed to Subversion, I decide I want Foo to be an interface and move the work from Foo to FooImpl. To accomplish this change, I:
1. Press F2 (rename Foo.java to FooImpl.java)
2. Press Shift+Alt+T, E (Extract Interface from FooImpl.java to Foo.java)

At this point, Foo.java's icon shows red X, signifying that it will be deleted when I commit the project to Subversion. What I would like is to be able to commit my Foo.java renamed to FooImpl.java, AND my new Foo.java interface. I would also like the revision history of the former Foo.java to be attached to it under its new name at FooImpl.java.

I get the same results when I press Shift+Alt+T, N instead of F2 to rename Foo class to FooImpl.

I can get to a state where I can commit everything by performing the following on Foo.java before committing:
3. Team -> Revert
4. Replace With -> Previous from Local History

But is there a more graceful way of accomplishing this?
