The term "checkout" has a different meaning in Subversion. Checkout is what
you do the first time, to get a directory from the repository. After that,
you "update" to get new files from the repository, and "commit" to send
your changes to the repository. Checking out files does not lock anything
in the repository, so there is no need to release anything.
