The IDE shows a diff, if you select one of the files in the dialog. So 
you can check what changed.
I have seen this with pascal files, if the contain a $ID, which svn updates.

Which revision?
Any docking extension active in the ide? Maybe another package?

I recall having had that once, for a very short time (quite a while

package that was installed, or it got fixed (at least as far as my tests go)
