Re: Storing Subversion repositories within another Subversion repository.

It is an empty repository (i.e. empty branches/tags/trunk folders, etc) created using "svnadmin create".
 
I intend to do absolutely nothing with this empty repository once it is in my development repository.
 
I was just wondering if there might be any side effects of doing this such as the development repository getting 'corrupted' if Subversion gets confused by seeing the empty repository inside it or perhaps the empty repository not being exported properly because Subversion thinks that it is part of (rather than just simply stored in) the development repository.

What exactly would you be storing? Empty branches/tags/trunk folders?
conf/db/hooks/locks folders created by svnadmin create?

What do you intend to do with these files after they're in your repo?
