Two step folder rename...

I had accidentally deleted a folder in my repo today, which I then tried to restore in a single step copy; however, TSVN wouldn't let me.
I think this is just UI thing - that it may need to be smarter to realize it is pulling from the history and that it can use the same at the latest revision.

I ended up doing a two step - naming the copy as something else, then renaming it to what I really wanted it to be.

Here's what I did:

1. Opened the TSVN Repo Browser
2. Set the it to look at an older revision
3. Found the folder I wanted to restore, right-clicked on it and selected 'Copy to...'
4. The dialog that came up had the OK disabled until I set a different name in - so I appended ".restored"

This restored it, but then i had to do a rename to remove the ".restored" from the name.

It should be reasonable enough to expect that if you are copy from history that the URL may be the same as the source URL - or perhaps have a "restore" checkbox that can be used.

Or did I do something wrong for TSVN?
