I suppose we could revert back before this commit and then try the svn move again ? One file doesn't get moved but gets changed instead (index.xml) meaning we can't move that directory whole, each file would need to be done individually I think.
You can move the files (assuming whatever the errors you were getting are sorted) and then edit it in the new location. When you commit it will be "moved with changes" and other files will be moved.
Anyway, I haven't closed the Issue as I thought I'd wait for your thoughts on the outcome, no-one else seems interested in this stuff but didn't want to close it until you were satisfied. I never tested on a MAC.
I think you'll find that it's more a case of only David does the level of peer review that we should all be doing ;-) Personally I like what you are doing and I'm opting for lazy consensus. Ross
