 Description   
From Danilo,

My subversion contains only one repositorie named TESTE. In this repositorie I have 3 folders (modules) named PRO1, PRO2 and COMUM.

I sent to your email the print screen showing the checkout result in Windows Explorer.

Inside COMUM/res I have one file named "teste.txt". The folder COMUM/res is referenced as sv:externals in folder PRO1 and PRO2.

The Repositorie in quick build is configured as showed below:

Repository type: Subversion
Description: ------
Repository url base: https://host/svn/teste/PRO1
Directory for trunk: ------
Directory for branches: branches
Directory for tags: tags
User: builder
Password: ************
Path to svn executable: ------
Use export mode?: no
Is cygwin subversion?: no
Revision log base build version: ${lastBuild==null?'':lastBuild.version}
Quiet period: 0
Login mapping: ------
Modules:
Source path: /
Branch: ------
Tag: ------
Revision: ------
Recursively: yes
Destination path: ------

I tested the other configuration showed below:

Repository type: Subversion
Description: ------
Repository url base: https://host/svn/teste
Directory for trunk: ------
Directory for branches: branches
Directory for tags: tags
User: builder
Password: ************
Path to svn executable: ------
Use export mode?: no
Is cygwin subversion?: no
Revision log base build version: ${lastBuild==null?'':lastBuild.version}
Quiet period: 0
Login mapping: ------
Modules:
Source path: /PRO1
Branch: ------
Tag: ------
Revision: ------
Recursively: yes
Destination path: ------

And finally I tested the "strange" configuration showed below:

Repository type: Subversion
Description: ------
Repository url base: https://host/svn/teste
Directory for trunk: PRO1
Directory for branches: branches
Directory for tags: tags
User: builder
Password: ************
Path to svn executable: ------
Use export mode?: no
Is cygwin subversion?: no
Revision log base build version: ${lastBuild==null?'':lastBuild.version}
Quiet period: 0
Login mapping: ------
Modules:
Source path: /
Branch: ------
Tag: ------
Revision: ------
Recursively: yes
Destination path: ------

All my tests failed and I have the same result.

When COMUM/res/teste.txt or PRO2/res/teste.txt is changed Quickbuild doesn't detect changes to the repositorie showed above (PRO1) and the configuration is not triggered.
