Actually, in my original problem, I may have used just the top-level
hostname in the externals reference, but I did the checkout on the
fully-qualified name. I don't know if this will make a difference.. But it
was, technically, in the same repository.

Here's the exact commands I did to setup the repo with an external folder
reference. After executing this, I did a commit from the top level of the
WC and I could see the one file listed as modified. After clicking OK, I
get an empty dialog with title "Commit.. Finished". The original problem I
had I was using TSVN exclusively on an apache-hosted repository. I
reproduced a simple repo from the cygwin prompt. As you can see at the end,
svn does not commit the external and is silent about it. TSVN behaves the
same way, but the commit dialog leads me to believe that it wouldn't:

$ svnadmin --fs-type fsfs create repo

$ svn co file:///cygdrive/c/temp/build/repo repowc
Checked out revision 0.

$ cd repowc

$ svn mkdir test1
A test1

$ svn mkdir test2
A test2

$ cat > test1/readme.txt
this is original text

$ svn add test1/readme.txt
A test1/readme.txt

$ svn commit . -m "testing"
Adding test1
Adding test1/readme.txt
Adding test2
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 1.

$ svn propset svn:externals "tst file:///cygdrive/c/temp/build/repo/test1"

this is new text

$ svn status

$ svn commit . -m "updated text in externals"

$ svn status
