Read appendix D in the subversion book to understand how
operating-system dev clients can interact with the svn repository.

In short: it's read-only access, unless you want to start fooling
with a feature called 'autoversioning'.

  * On windows 98 or 2000, go to network places and 'add a new
    webfolder', and enter the repository URL.

  * On XP, "add a new network place" and type the repository URL.

  * On OS X, it Finder: Go->Connect to Server-> enter URL.

In all the situations, you'll end up with a read-only mounted network
share.
