Annoying bug in SmartCVS 7.0.4

Hi there,

I've got SmartCVS set up for a SourceForge project, which has a module with lots of plugins based around the same SDK in a folder.  This means the filenames in the subfolders are basically the same.  Eg. within the Plugins folder will be folders 'Plugin1', 'Plugin2', 'Plugin3' etc., and each will contain files named 'File1.cpp', 'File2.cpp', 'File3.cpp'.  The names are the same, but the content is different.

SmartCVS seems to not be able to tell the difference between these files.  It worked fine on TortoiseCVS, but now SmartCVS is not able to do anything with any of these except the first.

ie. if I modify 'Plugin2\File1.cpp', and then commit it, it commits 'Plugin1\File1.cpp' - the wrong file!  If 'Plugin1\File1.cpp' is not modifed, even though 'Plugin2\File1.cpp' is modified, it takes no action!!!  This makes it IMPOSSIBLE to commit or update Plugin2, Plugin3, Plugin4 and so on.  I have about 50 plugins in this folder, and as you can imagine, this makes SmartCVS pretty much unusable for this project.

Is this able to be fixed?

Thanks
