Build Identifier: 3.4.2

If an eclipse project contains nested projects (say, a maven eclipse project with submodules) and the master project is switched to another branch,
all directories in the subversion working copy are correctly switched (verified by looking at the URLs with TortoiseSVN).

But in the eclipse project explorer the old branch name is shown next to all nested projects. Only the master project has the new branch URL in the project explorer. Restarting eclipse causes the new branch name to be displayed
on all nested projects.
Refreshing the project explorer view does not help.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create eclipse project with nested projects (e.g. a maven project with submodules).
2. Switch the master project (e.g. the one at the root of the underlying subversion working copy) from trunk to a branch.
3. Note how the eclipse project explorer shows the branch name only for the master project. Restart eclipse, now the new branch name is shown for the nested projects, too.
