This does explain something I didn't already know ... but it seems to just
clarify and add credibility to Paul's original question. He wants to see
the history, including the rev where the file was deleted. Now that I'm
using the correct operative & peg revisions ... I can see the history of a
file, including all the modifications etc, but cannot get the rev where it
was deleted.
Complete details follow, but this is the relevant part. A file named foo
was deleted in rev 4. It seems, if I svn log foo_at_3, and I specify -r
0:head, then I should get the complete history of that file, even for revs
higher than 3.
[user_at_machine wc]# svn log -v -r 0:head file://${HOME}/trash/repo/foo_at_3
svn: File not found: revision 4, path '/foo'
[user_at_machine wc]# svn log -v -r 0:3 file://${HOME}/trash/repo/foo_at_3
