Fair enough.

But then, why show this mess?

-------------------------------------------------------------------

 C:\> svnadmin create repository

 C:\> svnadmin verify repository
 svn: Berkeley DB error while opening environment for filesystem repository/db:
 DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery

 C:\> svnadmin recover repository
 Please wait; recovering the repository may take some time...

 Recovery completed.
 The latest repos revision is 0.

 C:\> svnadmin verify repository

Wouldn't it be possible to do:

 C:> svnadmin create repository
 Sorry, Subversion repositories not supported on Windows 9X/Me systems.
 C:\repository not created.

(with a suitable wording, of course).
