When moving or renaming files, synchronize with source control

[nathand]

There doesn't seem to be a good way to move or rename a file when using source control integration (at least with Perforce).  Either I rename the file using Save As... in LabVIEW, which causes problems with the source control repository, or I do the move within Perforce which breaks all the links within VIs.  The Save As... dialog box should offer the option to do the same operation in source control as it is doing on disk.

Same problem with svn. It would be very nice to have a native implementation.

There is a possibility to use the jki tool but that does not work for all kind of files or complete folders, classes, etc...

My  workaround now is i.e. to move files in LV, close LV, move the files back in windows explorer, move them with tortoise, check in my changes.

This is the only way to have things consitent...

I totally agree!   

There is a special rename/move functionality in Perforce, (and presumably other similar Source Control software) and the Project Explorer should use that functionality automatically. 

Perforce and Labview work great together, but the rename/move issue is extremely annoying.  I simply don't rename of move anything anymore, because it's too much work to clean up the mess.

I don't understand why this basic functionality isn't properly implemented...
