Comment (by charlie_kang):

 Sorry for confusion.
 Think the confusion in the term changes is either "changes between builds"
 or "actual changes of that particular revision". The latter is what we're
 looking for, and its more reporting information.
 What we're looking is the "sourcestamp changelist" in where it shows the
 the changes from that revision. Clicking on the build run, it shows:
 SourceStamp:

 Project full
 Repository      /var/www/svn
 Branch  trunk
 Revision        18535
 Got Revision    18535
 Changes see below    <--- This is the changes we'd like to see.

 Currently, when ifOnlyChanged=False and there are no changes, SVN
 checkecout build step will checkout -HEAD. I see the sourcestamp
 "got_revision" & "branch" get set but no changes or revision set.
 The thinking was "got_revision" would be getting the latest revision from
 that particular branch, grabbing that set of changes from that revision
 and in addition setting that sourcestamp.

 Its similat when running a forced build. There are no changes shown in the
 sourcestamp.

 In a way, it's essentially a re-run.
