OK, so much I figured already.
But what about svn update -r<numeric revision>
Shouldn't that update the file to the state of the numeric revision?
At least it says it does but when you look at the file it's different.

[later]
I SEE!!
It does contain the contents of revision 9's file - revision 9 in
directory /branches/BRANCH_1/x!
This probably should be an FAQ!

Thanks a lot
