svn merge and renames?

From: Eli Barzilay <eli_at_barzilay.org>

I was trying out "svn merge" to see how it deals with renames. I did
something like this:

  copy the trunk to a branch
  edit a file <f1> on the trunk
  rename <f1> to <f2> on the branch
  used svn merge on the trunk

svn merge does show something like

  D <f1>
  A <f2>

but the contents of <f2> does not have any of the changes to <f1>. Is
this the way things are supposed to work? Is there any way to avoid
such mistakes besides telling people to "be careful when renaming"??
