Are you checking out the top level of the repository? Normally you
would only check out (or switch to) the trunk/branch/tag version of
interest at a time, and a to a branch version wouldn't show up in an
update of some other branch or the trunk version.

That doesn't make much sense unless your working copy was tied to a
particular revision. What does 'svn status' show when you are in this
state?
