When a file is replaced by a different file, where that last file has an
history. In this case wc-1.0 needs one additional level of history.
E.g.
svn rm file
svn cp other-file file
or svn cp u...@rev file
This feature was actually added in Subversion 1.4. Before that you would get
an error that you had to commit the delete before adding a new file with
history.
(And in Subversion 1.7 this will be handled in a completely different way as
part of the WC-NG work)
