I'm pretty sure that's waaay out of TSVN's scope - I'd rather not have
it guess what the user might or might not have wanted to do.

On the other hand, I'm pretty sure you can install AnkhSVN to make sure
copies/moves/refactoring in Visual Studio get done correctly, with
ancestry and everything. You'll even get status overlays on all files,
and you can still use TSVN for managing everything through Explorer.
