RE: Sparse Checkout interface

Actually, using sparse check out technique, you CAN check out a particular file that is already checked out or exists...with a simple trick:

After checkout the top level of your repo using the 'this item only'option, in Windows explorer, you MUST first right-click on the file you need to update; choose Repo Browser in context menu; find that file AGAIN in repo browser, and right-click. You should now see the "update item to revision" in context menu.

I'm not sure whether it is an undocumented feature or simply a bug. It took me an extended after-work hours to finally find this trick. I'm using TSVN 1.6.2.
