Uhm, that should not happen, of course... See
SyncronizableTargetWorkingDir._replayChangeset() in target.py: there
is the code that sort the directories and add them before the files. I
miss to understand your case...

Yes, that should work, but I'm not an expert in two-way setups :)

Uhm, that does not work, for CVS. Currently, only Darcs and Monotone
lets you specify the date of the patch.
