Well, I have to disagree here with you. svn log -v throws me every change
in the wole repository, not only the hostory of the specified file. It
means you have to find the URL in hundred or thousands of lines. It simply
cannot be done in everyday development work, especially if you want to use
it in a corporate environment. So "almost useless" means "too annoying to
use it". You wont be able to convince your windows-addict boss to switch
from vss to svn untill it is not working. But it is only my oppinion ;)

Thanks for the info, I have lot of necessary moves/renames wich are
delayed waiting for this fix.
