Actually, I think we implemented something different than what we
wanted.

What we have now:

   * svn cmd -rX URL --> doesn't trace renames.
   * svn cmd -rX working-copy-path --> traces renames, using
wc-path@BASE as start.

What we *should* have:

   * svn cmd -rX URL --> traces renames, using URL@HEAD as start.
   * svn cmd -rX working-copy-path --> traces renames, using
wc-path@BASE as start.
   * svn cmd URL@X --> doesn't trace renames.

Maybe we should re-open issue 1093 to fix this.
