Good point.  I thought I'd checked this, but I can't find my
old notes around anymore.  It looks like this might do the

Someone should experiment with it a bit.

Maybe.  SVN co is really not that hard to figure out; it
essentially is just like CVS, except with URLs instead of
the magic CVS -d strings and the whole "login" fiasco.


Thanks for the great thoughts!
