What version are you running?
1.6

What's the URL of the page containing the problem?
Creating a New Review Request

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Move a file using "svn move" in your working copy
2. Create a patch
3. Attempt to post it

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected:
The patch is accepted and ReviewBoard understands that the file was moved with SVN.

Actual:
The patch is not accepted - error "File not found in repository at revision XYZ".  Reviewboard sees the revision numbers associated with the moved file and it FAILS!

What operating system are you using? What browser?
This is irrespective of browser or OS I've been using ReviewBoard since 1.0 and it's always done this!  Please fix this finally!


Please provide any additional information below.
I'm really annoyed at having to workaround this bug for the last 36+ months.  Please fix it.

Are you using svn diff, or post-review?

There's not enough context in svn diff for what we need. post-review attempts to work around this, but it'd be good to know if it's broken.
