To create an empty repository (just a dir with some db3 files), you
must use the 'svnadmin' tool.

The python tests are just ports of our XML i/o test scripts right
now... they'll be expanded soon.

Import won't create repository. It's just a way of adding files to an
already-existing one.

    svn import file:///path/to/repos somedir name-of-dir-in-repos

But Kevin is right. "Unrecognized URL scheme" that you never built
libsvn_ra_local, because ./configure didn't find Berkeley DB.

If you run `svn --version`, it will *tell* you which RA modules were
built. (And this has nothing to do with whether you built statically,
or whether you built dynamically and did a `make install`. The latter
is only necessary if you want to run an svn-aware Apache on your box.)

bash-2.04$ svn --version

Well, if you have no db3, then subversion/tests/libsvn_fs/fs-test.c
never compiled or ran tests to begin with. What repositories are you
talking about?? :)
