I meant to add as well that this is absolutely NOT the thing that you 
want to be tracked.  There are any number of times while using 
externals that I reorganised a directory only to have to change the 
svn:externals in the parent.  That change is then tracked, so if you 
check out an earlier version not only do you not get a particular 
revision you also don't get the right URL, so subverion doesn't even 
fetch the current version.  Gah!
