Description

The following scenario fails:

svnmucc \
mv dev/lucy/rc/tarball.tar.gz release/lucy/tarball.tar.gz \
rm dev/lucy/rc

Note that with the current backend, the commit behavior is identical to

svnmucc \
cp dev/lucy/rc/tarball.tar.gz release/lucy/tarball.tar.gz \
rm dev/lucy/rc

which does work.

svnmucc should be updated to allow the move operation to be used as expected by users. This should prepare us for the situation where our network protocol and filesystem layers are updated to really support moves.
