Hi TortoiseSVN support team,

I have TortoiseSVN and WinMerge installed and have setup WinMerge as the 
diff tool for TortoiseSVN. Today, I am taking over changes between 2 
folders compared with WinMerge over to a working copy of a branch with 
different SVN history. I am using the mentioned WinMerge window on one 
monitor to go through the modified code lines. In parallel, I have a 
TortoiseSVN - Check For Modifications window open and try to modify the 
files in it adding the changes found in the WinMerge window. To see all 
files in the TortoiseSVN window, I checked the box for showing the 
unmodified files. When I double-click an unmodified file in this view, it 
opens a WinMerge comparison window with the file. WinMerge then displays 
that the same file is open on both sides and is compared. The left side has 
as title the file name and "Working base", while on the title on the right 
is the file name and "Working copy". When I add changes on the "Working 
Copy" side and then save it, WinMerge then notifies twice that the file has 
changed and asks whether it shall load the new version. I confirm with 
"Yes" both times. Afterwards, there are no difference between the sides 
shown. Is this wanted and expected behavior?
If it is, can there be, or is there, a TortoiseSVN setting, something like 
a checkbox in the TortoiseSVN global settings, that would store a copy of 
the "Working base" file somewhere and then let WinMerge compare that copy 
against the Working copy file, with the intent that the changes are 
highlighted and visible in WinMerge when changing the contents of the 
Working copy file within WinMerge?
Thanks,
Tim
