title: How to remove a file from version control without deleting it?
body: <p>If I run <code>svn rm file</code>, the file is removed from the local working copy.</p>
  
  <p>What I do now is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ cp file file2
  $ svn rm file
  $ svn ci
  $ mv file2 file
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How do I avoid svn also deleting the local file when using <code>svn rm</code>?</p>
