Hello,

thanks for your answer. But this can't work (AFAIK). Simply because svn
doesn't know that it should look for the repos in ~/.svk/local (giving
the exact location is done using the file:/// URL type). Then because
this URL format is not valid (for svn):

$ svn co  //local/think-ow think-ow
svn: '/local/think-ow' does not appear to be a URL


I'm still accepting hints ;)

Thanks,
Marc
