Like this one ^^, except in 1.6 time, each Project folder and subfolder would have its own svn. All projects are under the same repo.

when you do "Import Existing Projects into Workspace", do you import more than one? A svn working copy contains multiple eclipse projects for me, and though it's kind of bad, we treat projects as basically slightly larger aggregations of java packages, so my workspace has about 180 projects.
