Renaming directories in TortoiseSVN - conflicted state

Question

I always have problems renaming a directory in TortoiseSVN. It seems to be taking the correct steps, marking the original directory and directory files for deletion and adding a new directory with the new name. I try to commit and get conflicted state and wound up checking out my whole project again.

Is this a known bug? My workaround is to delete and add the a directory with the new name in discrete steps.

I some cases I found it to be easier to rename the directory directly inside the repository, by using the repository browser (in the context menu TortoiseSVN->repo-browser).
