Re: Problem replacing directories

I, too, would be happy if this feature (replacing a directory in
working
copy in a single commit) were included in a future version of SVN.
(I faced such a situation when refactoring a project into
trunk/tags/branches:
I wanted /parentProject/subProject to become
/parentProject/subProject/trunk,
but this can only be done in a two commits.)

The problem is that SVN needs to keep the directory, that has been
scheduled to be deleted, in the working copy. Why is it so?
Would it require a large amount of work to change this design?
