I don't think it's documented, not sure. Some win32 person will have
to answer.

Um, that makes svnserve interact with stdin/stdout. Don't you want it
attached to a network port instead? I don't think you read the entire
explanation of svnserve in the book. :-)

If you're on Unix, add '-d' to make it background as a daemon
listening on port 3690. Or run it from inetd.

Or instead, have your client invoke a remote ssh process that invokes
a private svnserve. In that case, no need to run svnserve as a
daemon at all.
