I finally figured out how to use drag and drop within Windows explorer.
I didn't know this feature existed and haven't been able to find it
documented.
If I just want to copy the same file to a different directory - that's
fine;
but, what if I want to give it a different name?
The Branch/Tag dialog (which you may not know is the way to do copy
unless
you click on it) only copies from the WC to a URL and doesn't give you
the flexibility that the command line version does (like WC to WC).
I think that WC to WC is far more common, followed by an eventual
commit.
Because we're still using the "special" version of TortoiseSVN with
"_svn"
to support VS .NET web projects, I have to a) call restore-svn to rename
_svn to .svn,
b) call the command line version of SVN copy to copy files from WC to
WC,
and c) call hide-svn to rename .svn to _svn.
This is more painful than I'd like it to be.
Thanks,
Chuck
