Re: Advice for changing filename case in SVN on case insensitive system

Yes, that helps, Dave, thanks.

But,

deleting the file from Subversion, then adding the copy with the correct
case.

Question: Doesn't that blow away revision history? If I didn't care about
revision history I would just start over with a fresh repo.

I also thought about doing full URL svn mv's but seemed like that could
take a very long time to do...
