How to replace CVSROOT/modules features by svn

Hello,

I have to migrate some cvs repositories to svn. With cvs we used the
CVSROOT/modules file to define modules and submodules. A typical example
maybe

Project1 Project1Source &Headers
Project2 Project2source &Headers

Checking out Project1 now results in Project1Source checked out and also
Headers checked out on the root of Project1Source.

Is this possible with svn? If not, are there any suggestions for a
workaround.

Greetings, Jörg
