RE: [TSVN] Branching question

-=> Any other ideas would be welcomed!

What about using a different directory per user?

+ branches
+ tags
+ trunk
+ custom
+-- user1
+---- userConfig
+-- user2
+---- userConfig

So you checkout from trunk (or whatever) then in each
users working copy they checkout their `userConfig`
directory into an appropriate sub-directory. That way
you still get versioning, but on a per user basis.

...or perhaps another option...

+ branches
+ tags
+ trunk
+-- common
+-- custom
+---- user1
+------ userConfig
+---- user2
+------ userConfig

So all users checkout /trunk/common, then only
the appropriate /trunk/custom/userX/userConfig
into the sub-directory of their working copy.

I can't say that I've ever used either approach,
and you would need to test branching and tagging,
but Subversion allows it (read first chapter in
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/svnbook/ch07s03.html )
