SVN Commit errors because of file move (rename)

There isn't much more frustrating that dealing with SVN when it won't commit. Here's the error message that I'm getting: enter image description here

I've done everything I can think of and torn out what little hair I have left. I've read the other suggestions that were posted on Stackoverflow. This problem started when I allowed Visual Studio 2010 to rename a namespace. I know I got everything back to where it was but SVN isn't convinced.

Here is the SVN Status (better screen shot): enter image description here

You made some operation in Visual Studio that resultsd in renaming or moving some file to ../CourierReportingEnemy.Designer.cs (check the error message). Commit of such change must include 2 operations: remove (removing original file) and add (re-adding it in new place or with new name) with a link between the two operations. However, the REMOVE part of this change is not included with your commit by some reason.

Try committing from the root of the Subversion working copy (e.g. your solution's root) and make sure that the commit includes all the necessary changes.

Update:

It looks like that there is a problem. The move source Messenger.cs* files are non-versioned now. However they should be marked as deleted. There is a chance that AnkhSVN had troubles to translate Visual Studio's operation to Subversion, but I'm not sure.

I'd suggest to start from scratch and re-do your namespace rename. However, there is a chance that Repair moves/renames feature of TortoiseSVN will help.
