I agree it is wrong. But, I also think something is smarmy here. For example, if you create the folder after deleting it with the OS command (rather than SVN) then realize your mistake, rd the folder and do svn up it really should get the folder from the repo assuming your depth is set to infinity. If I do the same thing with a file... delete it (OS cmd), then create the same name, svn will report it with a status of "M" and a commit will merge the diff between that file and base. BOb
