Ah, thanks for explaining. As of now, I only had to do with rather "dump" SVN repositories with only a trunk (or only non-stdlayout branches I didn't care about anyways).

But do you think things could be seriously screwed up because of this? Or would just one of the commands gracefully fail, leaving the unexperienced user with an error message he doesn't understand?
