On Aug, 19 2006, when svn was at his 1.3.x, I asked a question on this
mailing list, "SVN does not allow checking out parent dir if its child
dir has been checked out",
see http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2006-08/0881.shtml
But now, svn 1.6.x still does not make improvement on this problem,
except that the error message is a bit different.
=========
svn: Failed to add directory 'ChjTrivials\ichsize': a versioned
directory of the same name already exists
=========
I'd like to get some idea about this issue from you kind users on this
mailing list.
Have you tried using sparse checkouts?
E.g.
Checkout chjTrivials with depth=empty
Update ichsize
Then, when needed update cgjTrivials with depth=inifinite?
Cheers,
Daniel B.

Why do you need this functionality? From the information you’ve give it just seems like you don’t need to bother running the first checkout, just the second.
Maybe if you explain your desired process/outcome people can suggest an alternate approach.
