Phew.... Its cool now.
All along it was because I had the 'Get Clean Copy' item checked. With this checked, I would always get a file from the main trunk. It would seem to ignore my current branch. With it off, I could do an update -D "22 mar 2002" and it would just rollback my code to that date, and keep on the current branch. I still can't figure out why "Get Clean Copy" behaved in this way, but thats another issue. I'm back on track with my code.
