This looks very disturbing.
Changing working copy nodes without a notification on it (or in some cases
one of its parents) will not only break the AnkhSVN in-memory status cache,
but normal users will ignore changes as well.
Subversion should not change the state of nodes without notifying the users
via the notification handler. Whether our cli client sends a full
notification to the user is another issue, but changing the state without
notifying library users is just bad behavior.
