diff a svn copied file

[Michael Rüger <mi...@mra.man.de>]

Hello Subversion users,
 
am not able to diff a svn copied file. IMHO file1c.txt remembers his
origin, so it should be possible to track all changes of file1c.txt back
to rev. 1 of file1.txt. Please look what i did:
 
--- snip ---
D:\test\repo>echo line1 > file1.txt
 
D:\test\repo>svn add file1.txt
A         file1.txt
 
D:\test\repo>svn ci -m "line1 added"
Adding         file1.txt
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 1.
 
D:\test\repo>echo line2 >> file1.txt
 
D:\test\repo>svn ci -m "line2 added"
Sending        file1.txt
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 2.
 
D:\test\repo>svn copy file1.txt file1c.txt
A         file1c.txt
 
D:\test\repo>svn ci -m "file1 copyed to file1c"
Adding         file1c.txt
Committed revision 3.

D:\test\repo>echo line3 >> file1c.txt
 
D:\test\repo>svn ci -m "line3 added"
Sending        file1c.txt
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 4.
 
D:\test\repo>svn log file1c.txt

D:\test\repo>svn di -r2:4 file1c.txt
svn: 'file:///D:/repo/file1c.txt' was not found in the repository at
revision 2

svn log is able to track the history for file1c.txt down to r1. But svn
diff ist not!
 
Thank you very much for any hints.

This is issue 1093, already fixed in the forthcoming svn 1.1.  See the
FAQ about how to work around it for now.  (Or, build svn's /trunk code!)
