Lost History of a file by just changing it and committing

Hello everyone,

I'm having a strange problem with Eclipse 3.1 / Subclipse 0.9.34 (JavaSVN):

For several months, I've been updating a library in my project with just
the new jar, resulting in a one-file-commit per new library release.
Everything was going well, and the file accumulated a nice history.

This time, I committed the following:

commit -m "update to spring 1.2.5"
/home/aschildbach/dev/workspace/3moves/web/WEB-INF/lib/spring.jar
     Replacing
/home/aschildbach/dev/workspace/3moves/web/WEB-INF/lib/spring.jar
     Transmitting file data ...
     Committed revision 1837.

Looks good, doesn't it?

But now the file is still marked as changed/dirty, and if I look at the
files history, its empty! This looks like a bug (and a bad one, I think).

Can I somehow ressurect the history? Unfortunately, I have done several
more commits after the one above.

Regards,

Andreas
