Description

Moving a working copy path 'A'-->'B' and then moving 'B'-->'A' results in a
replacement, which makes some sense...except that the WC is effectively unchanged.

For example:

>svn st

>svn up
Updating '.':
At revision 10.

>svn move iota iota-moved
A         iota-moved
D         iota

>svn move iota-moved iota
A         iota
D         iota-moved

>svn st
R  +    iota
        > swapped places with iota

>svn diff

>svn ci -m "empty commit"
Replacing      iota

Committed revision 11.

Seems that as we endeavor to make 'svn move' more atomic on the WC side (issue
#3630) that a scenario like that above should simply result in a WC with no changes.
