Hello Udo,
What do you mean exactly by "a commit includes changes in externals *only*" 
? Did you check in both cases the logs from the folder of your "external"?

>From what I understand, you're making a confusion between what belongs to 
your main repository and what belongs to the external repositories.
Case a: your commit affects the main repo and the external repo. Thus it's 
normal that you have this revision in your "main" log. (Not sure of what 
I'm saying: I think this action creates 2 commits, one in each repository.)
Case b: your commit only affects the external repo. This has nothing to do 
with the main repo, that's why you don't see the commit in the log.

Amongst things I've learned from other developers, it may not be a good 
idea to mix up several repositories in a single commit like you did. This 
brings confusion from the point of view of the external library.
