It's not really a bug: the revision of the externals is determined by
examining the working copy. The revision shown/used for this is the
highest revision of any item (file or folder) in the external.
If you haven't updated your working copy after r2745, then the external
your working copy is on is still on an older revision - and that's also
what you want to tag since that's the revision you've did all the
testing with.
