SVN Rename directory, maintain file history

history, rename, svn

Solution

Tortoise defaults to `Stop on copy` when viewing logs, if I remember right. If you uncheck that box on the log viewer, then you'll be able to see the entire history of the files/directories.

Problem

I originally created my svn repository without the suggested trunk, branches, tags structure. It looks something like this. ``` /src /src/file.txt /src/file2.txt ``` I used TortoiseSVN to rename the /src directory to /projectName/trunk/src; however, now I can't easily view the history of a file within the directory structure using Show Log. Is there a better way to do this to maintain a continuous history of all the files?
