new subversion user question
Hi. I'm trying to follow this document (very well done!),
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/svnbook/ch01s07.html
When you,
$ svn import /tmp/project file:///path/to/repos -m "initial import"
and all seems well, until I try,
$ svn checkout file:///path/to/repos/trunk project
because there is no "trunk project" in my path/to/repos. There's one in
my /tmp/project of course.
See,
[secretsvn@playpen110 lookHere]$ ls
conf dav db format hooks locks README.txt
Shouldn't there be a trunk? The way the command looks I think it should
be in the path/to/repos now. What am I not understanding? Thanks for
any tips, links, ect.

The files are stored in the berkeley db database files, you can't just
'ls' inside the repository and see them. When we talk about the
'repository filesystem' it's a 'virtual filesystem', not a literal
one.

Make sure you have write access to all the files inside the db
subdirectory of the repository.

I thought I would see my "imported" files here. Is this how Subversion
works? Where are my files stored? Or do they not actually get
imported, just some how connected (forgive my terminology)? Notice

Mmmnnn... I have permissions for just about everything in

You imported into the root of the repository, not into a trunk
subdirectory. You want to do something like:
$ svn import /tmp/project file:///path/to/repos/trunk -m "import"
