[jira] [Created] (SVN-4662) svn diff-revert-patch breaks moved files and folders

Andrey created SVN-4662:
---------------------------

             Summary: svn diff-revert-patch breaks moved files and folders
                 Key: SVN-4662
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4662
             Project: Subversion
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.9.4
         Environment: windows 7 x64, tortoisesvn command line tools
            Reporter: Andrey


Steps to reproduce:
1. Create empty repository on local drive, for example, "repo"
2. Checkout a working copy: repo_root
3. Add directory structure:
  trunk/dir1/file1.txt
  trunk/dir1/file2.txt
  trunk/dir1/file3.txt
  trunk/dir2/
(actually, the structure can be anything, does not much matter)
4. switch current directory into the trunk/
5. make a move (remove all other files/folders not need to be moved):
>svn move dir1/file1.txt dir2/file1.txt
A         dir2\file1.txt
D         dir1\file1.txt
>svn move dir1/file2.txt dir2/file2_.txt
A         dir2\file2_.txt
D         dir1\file2.txt
>svn remove dir1
D         dir1
D         dir1\file3.txt

6. make a patch:
>svn diff . > trunk.patch

7. revert all back:
>svn revert . -R
Reverted 'dir1'
Reverted 'dir1\file1.txt'
Reverted 'dir1\file2.txt'
Reverted 'dir1\file3.txt'
Reverted 'dir2\file1.txt'
Reverted 'dir2\file2_.txt'

8. apply the patch:
>svn patch trunk.patch .
D         dir1\file1.txt
D         dir1\file2.txt
D         dir1\file3.txt
D         dir1

As you see, entire set of changes was lost. Commit of this will be definitely broken and the consequenced revert is immenent.

In mine case it was the TortoiseSvn where the implementation of move semantic in the patch was a slightly different and at least has saved some files from complete loss.
