The commit dialog monitors the directory recursively for changes. If you
have the dialog open and then some file below (versioned or not) gets
modified (i.e., its 'last modified' time stamp changes), TSVN always
does a non-recursive commit. That's to prevent situations where a
versioned file really would get modified: if TSVN would not recognize
that and do a recursive commit, that modified file would also get
committed even though it wouldn't have been shown in the commit dialog.

Just press F5 to refresh the dialog if you've modified a file below the
folder you want to commit.
