you either
- started the log dialog from the repository browser
- tried to save not from the revision list but the file list

in both cases TSVN does not know if it's a file or a folder you've
clicked on. In case one, an URL can point to both a file and a folder so
there's no way to know before trying to download it, in case two does
Subversion not provide the information in the changed-file-list if it's
a file or a folder that got changed.
