Re: Getting history of a file which was added when moving a folder

Hello Rob,

here is the svn info output:

Path: .
URL: file:///repository/svn/Test/folder2
Repository Root: file:///repository/svn
Repository UUID: 406d82d4-fc1e-0410-b75a-94d09f33c9f4
Revision: 3
Node Kind: directory
Schedule: normal
Last Changed Author: root
Last Changed Rev: 3
Last Changed Date: 2006-10-04 16:13:09 +0200 (Wed, 04 Oct 2006)

Both diff command with @HEAD and @3 gives the same output as without
anything at the end. So no success.

Also updating and doing the diff by 'svn diff -r 3:2 file2' gives the same
file not found error.
