Status inconsistent with c/i when using svn:externals

[St...@etas.de]

Hi dev,

I reproduced the following with SVN 1.0.6 under W2K Pro. See below
for reproduction script.

When using externals, the behavior of "svn ci" is at least inconvenient:
- "svn st" will show changes to the "ordinary" folders as well as to
externals
- "svn ci" will only commit the changes in "ordinary" folders. Externals
  will not be processed, even if they refer to the same repository.

I believe, some earlier (late 0.x ) version worked as expected (did the
commit on the externals, too). Since I didn't find an issue tracker item
for this, I would like to know what the intended / designed behavior is.

BTW: Thanks for SVN!

Stefan.
