to correct myself, and clarify the request.

I said: svn mkdir file:////home/jimc/big/svn-repo/tags -m 'create
tags-rep'
I meant: svn mkdir file:////home/jimc/big/svn-repo/tags/echobox -m
'create tags-rep'

I tried the latter, and it failed, for the reasons you stated.
I then fixed my script, but copy pasted from the wrong log

But - it could work like mkdirhier, without complications (at least by
this beginners reckoning)

NAME
       mkdirhier - makes a directory hierarchy

SYNOPSIS
       mkdirhier directory ...

DESCRIPTION
       The mkdirhier command creates the specified directories. Unlike
mkdir
       if any of the parent directories of the specified directory
do not
       exist, it creates them as well.

Thanks.
