Not a copy/move with history. 

You can do an OS copy and lose the history. Do an SVN delete in the
source wc and an add in the dest wc, commit both wcs, and you've just
done a move. 

I heard a rumour on the Tortoise list that the configuration
TortoiseSVN 1.1.1
SVN 1.1.1
Apache 2.0.52
at least doesn't wedge your repository when you try to do this and
fail.  

Anybody know which change fixed this? Which issue described it? 

I toured CHANGES on the trunk and found nothing to match.
