In some cases yes, in others no. It depends what is in the
changesets. Changesets are based on revisions. If a single file was
changed in revision 8, 9 and 10. It will only show in the changeset
for revision 10. So you might be able to update to the revision 8
changeset, but it will not include any of the changes for that file.
Likewise, it would not be possible to get the changes that happened in
revision 10 without also getting the ones that happened in revisions 8
and 9.
The cases where it does work is if revisions 8, 9 and 10 do not share
anything in common with each other. Then you can update any of the
changesets selectively and it works. As you say, if a folder is
included, then all bets are off. You cannot update a folder to r8
without also updating everything beneath the folder to that revision
as well.
