You can commit into an external, though from the command-line you have
to explicitly commit there. I.e., if your working copy looks like this:

wc/
  code/
  external_resources/ <-- external

and you commit from wc/, svn won't notice any changes in
external_resources and you'll need to commit there separately.

SmartSVN, at least, has a "descend into externals" checkbox that does
what you would expect.
