You mean this part?

  D:\SVN\r26758>svn add wc\t.txt
  A wc\t.txt

  D:\SVN\r26758>svn commit wc -m ""
  Adding wc\t.txt
  Transmitting file data .
  Committed revision 2.

No, that doesn't bump 'wc' itself to r2. Since the only change in the
working copy is the addition of 't.txt', the commit command would have
the same effect whether you ran

   svn commit wc -m ""

or

   svn commit wc\t.txt -m ""

In the first instance, Subversion would crawl the working copy to
detect changes, see that t.txt has been added, see no other changes,
and therefore commit the addition of t.txt. In the second case,
Subversion wouldn't crawl, it would just establish that the named
target had been changed (which indeed it had -- it was added), and
commit the change: again, the addition of t.txt.

Neither scenario is a commit of the directory 'wc', and neither will
increment the revision of 'wc' itself. Try it, and take a look at
.svn/entries afterwards to see.
