How do I SVN copy files or projects in Subclipse?

I am working with Java projects in Eclipse (Juno), using Subclipse for version control.

I've noticed that when I copy a file or a project, the resulting copy will not be under version control. I can add the files to version control as a second step, but that will break their Subversion history. Usually, I want to preserve the history: I want a way to copy files and projects in Eclipse that will issue a svn copy command.

How can I achieve this?

Update: I tried it on a project again; it seems that a svn cp was issued. In which case my question becomes: how can I disable that?

Whenever I want to make a copy of code I use the branch feature, this would keep the history intact. It is available under (Right-Click on resource) -> Team -> Branch/Tag.
