svn equiv of cvs alias?

Hi all,

I'm still working on my homedir under svn problem (between narrowly
avoiding the layoff axe and moving our lab to a new location, I
haven't had much "play" time :)

The original article I read which inspired me to attempt this under
svn actually used CVS. The author mentioned using CVS Modules which
led me down the wrong track with svn:externals last week. On closer
re-reading of the article, it appears he used CVS Aliases in the
*modules* file, like this:

        pll -u cvsfix -o cvsfix pll-cvs/home &src &doc &html &lib &bin &mail
        pllbin -u cvsfix -o cvsfix pll-cvs/home &bin

Is there something analagous to this construct in svn?

If not, would it make sense to create separate svn repos for each
major subdir, with essentially nothing under the top-level homedir
repo, yet attach an svn:externals list to the main top-level dir such
that when it gets checked out, it then pulls in the other repos?

Thanks,
