Ok, I see. Maybe this is also the reason for the following problem: When I commit several pathes, one of them being an external directory, I get an exception: "Are all the targets part of the same working copy?", SVN_ERR_WC_NOT_LOCKED. I cannot omit the external directory from the list of items to be commited (as it may contain property changes I want to commit), and I cannot use recursive commit on the parent directory (as this would commit other objects the user did not select for commit). Is there a workaround? Or is this question better submitted to the dev list?
