Managing Product templates

Hi,
 
We are currently branching into Subversion usage operating with
VisualSVN Server (will upgrade to Enterprise when trials are complete)
and a client side using TortoiseSVN. In general all very happy and
things are all pretty seamless and obvious, but...
 
I would like to introduce the concept of a "product" directory template
that would be resident in each of our repositories. I guess at this
point I should say that we are probably going to operate with multiple
repositories where a repository is set up for each of our main
"Projects". Then inside each of our repositories we would have many
"products", each hopefully having a structure generated from our
template. The reason I think we will operate in this fashion is because
we will need to apply specific user security access rights to the
"projects" and I am told by our IT administrators that this would be the
simplest way of achieving this. Open to pointers on this too.
 
I have managed to create the template structure (applying desired
properties to the structure such as ignore patterns and logminsize etc)
and then create new "products" in a repository based on the template....
simple copy function in a Tortoise repo-browser, not really rocket
science..
 
But I am struggling to find a way of say importing this template into
another repository and identify a mechanism, however manual, of keeping
them in sync. I am trying to achieve as much as possible from a client
interface as in general we do not have simple access to personnel with
server access rights.
 
I apologise if this is the wrong place to post this query but my web
searching has not really managed to help so far I would appreciate any
guidance, even if it is a pointer to another place to ask the question.
 
Thanks for any help that can be given.
 
Regards
Steve Hutchinson
