Subversion (or any other system, for that matter) isn't smart enough
to completely protect you from yourself. If you only partially update
your WC - externals or otherwise - don't be surprised if things are
broken.

You say "someone updated tools folder only" - are you sharing a
working copy? If not, only one person should be updating anything
there - the owner of that WC.
