Dear Sunod,
This is what I found in the FAQ:
> Q: How do I check out a single file?
> A: Subversion does not support checkout of a single

If want to checkout and modify that file you need to checkout the folder
it's located in. This is due to the fact that subversion organizes stuff
folder-wise. As far as I know there's a switch to do the check out
non-recursively, to avoid checking out subsequent folders.
Regards,
Lars.
