Ah, cool. When I needed it I only tried the safe way :)

How do you mean? svn up -r<revision before move> gets the state before the 
move, with the old file names, no?

I don't think there's an operation for reverting two operations, a change in 
the file and a previous move, in one shot. But doing it in two should still 
be fine. Just like you would do it with cvs, except that you don't loose 
history if you do the copy/move back to the old filename.
