So how was the following commit acheived?

svn log -r397 -v https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/

Whatever was used to generate that commit is good because it shows
clearly that the release files were derived from the dev files, for
example:

   R /release/httpd/CHANGES_2.2 (from /dev/httpd/CHANGES_2.2:396)
   A /release/httpd/CHANGES_2.2.21 (from /dev/httpd/CHANGES_2.2.21:396)

And when might one use the different options?
For example, how does 4) differ from 3)?
Won't 4) end up creating subversion/1.7.4/1.7.4/ ?

Also 1 & 2 seem to relate to different directory layouts compared with 3 & 4.
As far as I can tell, 3&4 assume each release has a different
subdirectory, which is not the case with httpd at present.
Using a separate sub-directory per release makes it trivial, but is
not going to suit all projects.
