It might, but that would be a copy bug. svn_wc__db_read_info asserts that status!=absent for the working node. Copying an absent node is explicitly disallowed in the the wc-to-wc code because there is no way to commit such a copy. (My original plan was to represent the copied node as not-present so that it got deleted on commit, but the commit fails early when the parent is copied.) -- Philip
