It is stored in a versioned property. You have to commit the property
change in order for it to be stored in the repository. You cannot commit
a property change on a folder unless it is at the head revision. That is
why you get the out of date message. So you need to run Team -> Update on
your project prior to committing the property change.
See this FAQ on the out of date error:
