+<p>The effect of the <code>svn move</code> command is now different
+from running <code>svn copy</code> followed by <code>svn delete</code>.
+Moves are represented as a copy and a delete which are linked to one another.
+These links are shown by <code>svn status</code> and <code>svn info</code>.</p>
+
+<p>Some Subversion operations will now treat moved files and
+directories specially. Behavioural changes include:
+<ul>
+  <li>Moves can only be comitted if both sides of the move are part of
+      the commit.</li>
+  <li>Some classes of tree conflicts involving moves are automatically
+      resolved. For instance, incoming file edits during an update will
+      automatically be applied to moved files at their new location.</li>
