The revision number to which you want to pin each external needs to be listed on the corresponding line of the svn:externals property. Read the documentation again; I recommend following the example after the paragraph which starts "Or, making use of the peg revision syntax". http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.advanced.externals.html
