Not sure my point got through, when a file in a folder has been
added,deleted or modified but the folder itself has no modifications
I think it would be nicer if the status was displayed as modified
regardless of what type of change has been made to the files
the folder contains. Now, when a file has been deleted, the
parent folder shows the deleted overlay which does not feel
intuitive to me.
I think that the folder should only display
deleted overlay when I actually has deleted the folder not when I
have deleted a file in the folder. The same applies to the
adding of files of course.
thanks

I get that as well. In my case the reason is that I also have
TortoiseCVS installed and there simply aren't enough icon overlay slots
available in Windows to cover the TSVN 'Added' overlay, so it shows no
overlay.

The problem is with Windows, not TSVN. But we do not fail as gracefully
as we might.

Ideally, if there are not enough overlay slots, we should substitute a
different overlay, eg. 'Modified'. But I don't know if we can even tell
that Windows has not honoured the request for a particular overlay.
