Well, in CVS if you check out something, you check out just the current
version. In SVN, since you have all tags as directories, if you do a
checkout of pkg-ocaml-maint, as i did, you will not only get all the
stuff, but all the tags too, no ? So you explicitly have to checkout
pkg-ocaml-maint/packages/ocaml/trunk or something such, no ?
