    Description

      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.
      
      Justin Patrin <papercrane_at_gmail.com> submitted this patch to the dev list. 
      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:
