and that is a pitty
Why not update that file also to revision 8 and later on if i come to the
other changeset that has rev 10
do the update to 10?

Yes i get this, i can understand that this is something that cant be changed
But it isnt a big problem because when i look at the changes i see them all.
So i do see them

This is also a pitty
Is it really impossible to only update the propeties of a dir?
(because that is what i update, the properties so "children" of the dir not
the dir it self)

Problem is for me that i monitor a lot of co workers things. Now i do that
based
on changeset and i would lik to have changesets that are really complete as
possible for that
specific revision and update only really the files in that changeset and
nothing more.
In cvs this was some how easier to manage because the changesets are not so
mixed up
and you really update what you see there not suddenly much more.
So i am just wondering what we could improve in subclise. is everything
really just subversion
or can we improve the plugin?
