I didn't ask my question clearly enough. On my RH9 box with svn 0.17, I
don't seem to be able to import a tree into an svn repository
and then immediately checkout back into the same directory.
Is this a permissible pattern? I looked for guidance in
chapter 3 of "Subversion: The Definitive Guide" (rev 6204:6215)
and in the refereence page for checkout, page 138. I didn't
see an example in either place that precludes this
sequence of commands, but I didn't see a positive example
either.
I'm about to update to 0.25. I'm trying to understand
what I should expect to see.
Please advise at your convenience. Thanks.
