If I do an svn cp or svn mv I can see in the svn log where it was copied/moved from.

Where does svn store this information?

Certain properties like author/log message can be changed retrospectively. Is it possible to retrospectively add this copy/move information if someone just a normal copy/move by mistake?

  • How is it a duplicate? Did you even read the question? I even wrote down the commands to do an svn mv! I am asking where the info is stored! – opticyclic Feb 16 '17 at 15:11
  • I retracted my flag but I think the answer you want is in the answers to that question. I see your point that the question itself may be different enough. – Brick Feb 16 '17 at 15:14

  • @bahrep that doesn't appear to answer the question. The files have been committed - hence the mention of svn log. I'm looking for an answer like "it is stored in the property svn:mergeinfo" or "the server determines the info before sending the log detail" – opticyclic Feb 16 '17 at 18:46
