I gave a presentation on "Subversion Best Practices" at OSCON this year,
and you can see the slides on my web site at:
http://electricjellyfish.net/garrett/talks/oscon2004/svn-best-practices/index.html
There's also a chapter about the same topic, covering some of the same
things in more depth, in my book "Practical Subversion", which came out
this week and is available on Amazon.
Some of the same topics are covered in the other svn book, but there's
no specific section on it that I can find.
Ben also wrote some stuff on the subject, which is available at:
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/doc/user/svn-best-practices.html
I hope this helps,
