Ummmmm, Ben?  'svn copy' has always taken a -r argument.  We've
already used it to tag specific revisions...?


copy (cp): Duplicate something in working copy or repos, remembering history.
usage: svn copy SRC DST.

  SRC and DST can each be either a working copy (WC) path or URL:
    WC  -> WC:   copy and schedule for addition (with history)
    WC  -> URL:  immediately commit a copy of WC to URL
    URL -> WC:   check out URL into WC, schedule for addition
    URL -> URL:  complete server-side copy;  used to branch & tag

Valid options:
  -m [--message] arg:	specify commit message "ARG"
  -F [--file] arg:	read data from file ARG
  -r [--revision] arg:	specify revision number ARG (or X:Y range)
  --username arg:	specify a username ARG
  --password arg:	specify a password ARG
