Hello

We had a very similar problem, probably the same, I reproduced it using TSVN 1.7.6 Build 22632 - 32 Bit, before I discovered this discussion thread.

Steveking says, it is not really a bug if you haven't updated your working copy. I agree so far. But in our case, we had updated our working copy, and also made several more commits in the trunk project (but no more in the external folder). Then it looks quite buggy, it's at least an unexpected behaviour.

If you look at the Windows properties' SVN tab of the local WC's folder (in Franz' example: UnxUtils, which is in the repo UnxUtils/Release1), it probably shows SVN revision 2740. However, the TSVN log window of that folder probably shows rev. 2740 printed in bold, and rev. 2745 (renaming) printed normally at the top.
I would expect the tagged externals to be set to one of the following three possibilities (again, I take the names and revs of Franz' example):
svn:externals -r 2740 ^ExternalLibs/UnxUtils/Release1_at_2745 UnxUtils
svn:externals -r 2745 ^ExternalLibs/UnxUtils/Release1_at_2745 UnxUtils
svn:externals ^ExternalLibs/UnxUtils/Release1_at_2745 UnxUtils
(the third one defaults to the same operative revision as the second one).

Can the commit routine of TSVN find out such path changes and set the peg revision accordingly?

Regards, Thomas
