we stumbled over an annoying issue with subversion 1.6.11. If we update a WC with versioned file externals, files where the version is not equal to the last revision of the file, are double-updated on _every_ update like this: Naturally this updates the file timestamps everytime and thus triggers Makefile actions. Is this a known issue? Should I file a bug in the issue tracker? Find attached a FSFS based demo repository showing the bug.
