Hi Edward, thanks for having responded. Can I file a feature request for that in the issue tracker, what do you think?
@Ryan: Of course with a peg rev I can log that single rev. But the rev number of that rev is that what we are looking for! To find out this rev number, we want to use an earlier peg rev where we know that the file still existed and want to add "-r1:head" as operative revs to see all revs including the rev where the file was deleted.
