In particular, each directory in your working copy contains a subdirectory named <filename>.svn</filename>, also known as the working copy <firstterm>administrative directory</firstterm>.

Subversion 1.7 offers a completely new approach to how working copy metadata is stored and maintained, and chief among the visible changes to this approach is that each working copy now has only one .svn subdirectory which is an immediate child of the root of that working copy.
