You can't spot a mixed-rev WC with svnversion either. svnversion will
show you the minimum and the maximum revision, but that doesn't mean
that you did an 'svn up -rXXX' on a file. It just shows you the min
revision of files which haven't been updated with all the others (try
it: change a file, commit and then run svnversion _without_ doing an
update first).

I'm afraid there's no way to tell that a file has been updated to an
earlier revision from gathering the status (at least, not that I know of).

Hmmm - while messing around with svnversion and 'svn up -r' I found
something very disturbing:
cd TortoiseSVN
svn log Release_procedure.txt
(log shows that the revision this file was added is r2110)
svn up Release_procedure.txt -r2110
  D Release_procedure.txt
  updated to revision 2110

the file was deleted (ok, I should have expected that)

But now, if I do an
svn up
the file isn't added again!!!
