Correct, that's the most common way of working.

What do you mean by 'download'? Checkout the code to work on it, or

You should control which versions you release. Normally the compiled
code is placed on a separate download page, not in the repository, so
release files are stable.

Read the subversion book to get a better overview of what subversion
