Re: Help Needed w/Subversions Weird Repository Layout

From: Jerry Haltom <wasabi_at_larvalstage.net>

There are two popular directory layouts:

/trunk
/branches
/tags

or

projectname/trunk
projectname/branches
projectname/tags

In either case, the root of the project IS trunk/. To checkout one would
do

svn co url://blah/project/trunk project

At least, that's how I do it. I have never thought about where to put
vendor code or something.
