Yes, unfortunately this is a problem that I experienced, too. I don't know why this is happening and what a proper solution would be. However, there are two ways to work around it. One would be to checkout just the newly added ampersand module into your already checked out module. The other would be to checkout the complete (changed) module into a new directory tree and copy the entire checked out new ampersand module subdir into your original checked out module. (Hope this isn't too confusing.) I'm not sure if the latter is a wise way to handle things, but so far it has worked for me. If anybody knows a proper solution for this little quirk, I'd be grateful for any hints.
