Ah. I assumed (foolishly obviously) that the non-recursive switch would
apply to each item so that if a folder is specified the action would not
then be repeated inside the folder. I don't think it intuitive that when
non-recursive is specified it prevents the action occurring from an
explicitly specified file, albeit in a sub-folder. But I guess this is
something I will have to take up on the subversion list.
Out of interest, can anyone here think of a reason why you would want to
specify an item in a sub-folder but not have that item actioned by the
command due to the non-recursive switch?

Ok, fair enough - but it's going to be irritating. I hope that in due course
this feature will be restored by the Subversion team.
