package/bundle support

Hi,

I'm a new Subversion user, and in my initial use I am already missing
one feature of CVS that doesn't seem to be present in Subversion. I've
checked the existing issues list and don't see anything like it, so
here I am.

The issue is that, particularly on MacOS X, there are times when you
want a directory to be treated as an atomic unit. For the most part,
there's no difference between this and the normal behavior, except when
it comes to addition or removal of files, for which Subversion requires
manual intervention. As these directories are usually managed by
programs that have no idea they're involved in source control, doing
this manually is not an option.

This is handled by the "wrappers" extension to CVS by tarring up the
directories, but because of Subversion's vastly better handling of
directory structure, I'd imagine a more elegant solution can be used
here.

Thanks,
br
