Correct me if I'm wrong, but if my default group is developers. But I am
also a member of the group admin. If I checkout and edit a file that belongs
to the group admin and check the file in to the repository again. The file
will not longer belong to the group admin but instead to my default group
developers. Is this correct behavior or is something very wrong??

If you would read the documentation it clearly states the reasons why 
you don't add users to files for write access. 

Using groups is a good way to prevent write access on a per directory
basis, and I don't see why it wouldn't apply here.
