I would HATE to see Subversion attain the command set hell that GIT
has. OTOH I think that lumping these two logically disparate user
actions into one subcommand makes as much sense as, say, removing the
'checkout' command and making that a special flag to 'update'.

Sure, the code path is probably basically the same, but from a user
POV, there's a world of difference.
