That doesn't actually work though (or at least not as expected). See discussion in http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4061&dsMessageId=3084736

It was confirmed not working in 1.6 through 1.8. I know some form of it was working in 1.3 but that might have been a "simpler" branch structure.
