Hi,

Also, if you move files or folders, it's a good idea to commit both
parent-folder-of-the-deleted-item and parent-folder-of-the-moved-item
at the same time.

Move in Subversion is really a copy-and-delete operation, by now. If
you commit both parts (copy, delete) in the same moment, it is easier
to notice it was a move.

Best regards,

Fernando Nájera
