Version control for /etc

I am trying to setup a svn repository for /etc for a number of servers.
Has anyone tried doing that?

I am currently having problem with the intial checkout. I can import /etc
tree into the repository, but subversion will not allow me to overwrite
files on checkout. For a good reason :-)

Is it possible to setup the repository without rebooting the server (and
mounting /etc from a knoppix cd or something similar).

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
