Problems with externals

Hi all

I am not sure if I am missing something with externals or not.

I set the properties on a directory to be an external to a specific
revision. If I do an update at the top level I get the correct code, but
if I do an update on the external directory I get the latest code for
those files not the revision. I believe this is an error in subversions
handling of externals.

I hope what I am saying makes sense.

Example.

Myproject has property set to use external revision 5 of
myproject2/common-files in directory common-files

So you would end up with the directory

/myproject/common-files

If I do any update on the myproject directory it would get the correct
version of the files, but if I went and did an update on the
common-files directory it would update to the latest version of these
files in /myprojects/common-files not version 5.

Thank for any help

Steve
