Re: RES: diagram of the database (SVN)

As Mark already told you, Subversion's repository does not use a relational
database. There are two backend data stores for the repository, one
implemented using Berkeley DB (which is a simple name->value mapping
database) and one implemented in custom logic. You might be able to derive
some meaningful information from the "structure" file associated with that
BDB-based backend:

http://svn.collab.net/viewvc/svn/trunk/subversion/libsvn_fs_base/notes/structure?revision=28979&view=markup

But if you're goal is to write an article about databases, I think
Subversion is just going to prove to be a poor choice of a topic.
