BerkeleyDB is one database format a Subversion repository can use.
FSFS is the other (now default) database format. In an FSFS
repository, the data for each revision is stored in the db directory,
in the revs and revprops directories, one file per revision. But you
don't really need to know that. All you need to know is that the
repository stores your data, and you can access it using a Subversion
client.
