Re: checkout to remote location

but for that your server must maintain copies for all the projects and for all the sub folders.i don't think that it is a feasible solution to export/checkout every folder and sub folder periodically on server. repository size may be very large, in that case occupying so many space on server for these copies is very difficult.

Oh! Then you probably want an export, not a working copy. An export
will be less than half the size of a working copy. You can still have
a server-side working copy that gets "svn update"d periodically or
via post-commit, but to make the tarball, you first "svn export" from
that working copy to another directory and tar up that new directory.

As someone else said, ViewVC already has this feature. Other web-
based repo browsers may offer it as well.
