This has been an issue with version control tooling for quite a long time. I'm fairly certain both CVS and SVN did the same thing. But I agree that you're still right.

I'm also very amused by the number of replies to your comment along the lines of, "oh, it's actually very easy because I always use <third party tool>".

Which is, of course, rather proving the point.

No, because the point is about common tooling, and the common tooling does not, actually, make this difficult.

That's rather a matter of opinion. One that I and GP both clearly disagree with. Insisting it's easy doesn't mean everyone will agree with you.
