I see I'm not alone in having this problem - see
<http://tinyurl.com/4zphfa> and <http://tinyurl.com/dy8grw> - but I
can't find a solution anywhere.

Anyone know what happened to the svnpatch-diff branch at
<http://tinyurl.com/chrlso>? It looks like this was intended to give
svn the ability to take and apply patches including file moves and
renames and property changes, which would be great. But sadly the
branch appears moribund.
