This patch adds support for the '--replace' switch for 'svn copy'. This switch
would allow users to perform a delete and copy on the same destination with one
command. See the link below for more usecase information.

Discussion petered out after a few comments, but the idea is an interesting one.
I'm filing it here so it doesn't get lost. The original patch can be found here:
