You know what you are asking for is going to cause data loss.

Let's say I modify a file and commit that change. Then my co-worker has modified the same file... he copies it off to another folder, does an update then copies his file back. Well, sure, his file hasn't been touched, but when he commits his changes mine will be lost. (Well not lost because they are in the earlier revision, but they will no longer be in the HEAD revision.)
