How to move a file (or folder) from one folder to another in TortoiseSVN

svntortoisesvn

I would like to move a file or folder from one place to another within the same repository without having to use Repo Browser to do it, and without creating two independent add/delete operations. Using Repo Browser works fine except that your code will be hanging in a broken state until you get any supporting changes checked in afterwards (like the .csproj file for example).

Update: People have suggested "move" from the command line. Is there a TortoiseSVN equivalent?

To move a file or set of files using Tortoise SVN, right-click-and-drag the target files to their destination and release the right mouse button. The popup menu will have a SVN move versioned files here option.

Note that the destination folder must have already been added to the repository for the SVN move versioned files here option to appear.
