Yes, I knew that as soon as 1.1.0 came out. The thing is: Subversion
does follow the history when doing an 'svn cat workingcopypath', but it
doesn't when using 'svn cat url'. So by using the repobrowser, you
'lost' your connection to the working copy and TSVN then uses the URL's
of the repository to do the work. And since only working copy paths
really work with svn_client_cat() if they're moved...
