And a checksum, so that SVN can determine if they've been modified or
not. But yeah, I can't see any reason why they'd need the pristine copy
stored in that case. (Unless you did want 'svn diff' to do something
useful on them, in which case it'd have to fetch a pristine version from
the server first if it didn't have its own.)
