I can understand the sentiment... So, in using svn for configuration  
management there can be short stints where "svn export" is heavily  
used in configuration testing. Because of the time-lapses between  
those stints and my continuing use of both legacy-CVS setups and svn  
it just hasn't settled for me.

thats it, thanks.
