Actually, I was looking to answer this question on stackoverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24766535/how-to-tell-what-revision-a-folder-was-deleted-in
The person was asking how to find the revision a folder was deleted in, and they knew some really old revision where the folder was definitely present (example: revision 2000 out of 10000 had the folder). I thought this would be a great use for peg revisions! But this throws an error: svn log -r 1:HEAD http://example.com/svn/path/that/got/deleted@2000 This stops the log history at revision 2000, which makes it useless for finding changes (like a deletion) *after* the known revision: svn log http://example.com/svn/path/that/got/deleted@2000 In the general case I might be interested in changes to a file that happened between when I know it was there and when it eventually got deleted (for example, maybe somebody not very good at SVN renamed a file without using SVN on some branch, removed the old filename, and then merged back while we continued making changes on trunk). Is it possible to find the changes from a known revision to the deletion point, without knowing the exact revision where the file got deleted?
