I think this is where you get it wrong. I think a better "translation" would be
svn cat -> show me
-r HEAD -> current content
file//repos/file_at_1 -> of the file as it WAS in revision 1
But there isn't a "current content" (i.e. revision 25) in revision 1. It doesn't make sens. Well not to me at least.
It looks like the problem is becuase file1 in revision 22 is not the same as in HEAD (because of the delete and copy). If you look at the Subversion Book there is an explenation of the peg revision algorithm that explains very well why that command failed (I have the book for svn 1.4)
