Summary: Rename files

Initial Comment:
hg help -> version 04c76f296ad6

The menu as entries for "add" and "remove", but none for "rename".

A simple menu item would be a good srart.


Note: Rename is also used for moving files without changing the file name.

TortoiseSvn has an advanced implementation of this, see 
http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/nightly/TortoiseSVN_en/ch05s12.html
By right-dragging files, TSVN allows you to move a file in Windows and in 
Subversion in one operation.

Unfortunately, we haven't time to look at this at all.

Peso's suggestion on TSVN's behavior look okay, though I am not familiar
with TSVN to know how the corner cases are handled. Also, the link posted
suggests that it's only good for moving files from one folder to the other.
If possible, I'd like to have unified interface to handle all the rename
and move, which would probably involve Explorer's Copy extension

It'd be nice if we can get some help on this, and, for that matter,
anything on our lengthy TODO list.

I suppose it is too late to squawk for this to be really fixed in 0.4?
(I'm trying to convince my group to move off of CVS and renames are a huge
reason why, since we develop tests with an extensive review process that
involves moving them between directories)...
(Sorry, I wish I had seen this sooner).

Yet another qct workaround:

If you move revisioned files around and then start the commit tool, it
will show the old filename as missing (!) and the new filename as unknown
(?).  If you right click on either of those files, the context menu will
allow you to "tie" the two files together and perform an 'hg rename
--after'.

Again, not optimal, but it is there.
