Package: svn-buildpackage
Version: 0.8.0
Severity: wishlist

In the Debian Perl Group, we're currently using svn-buildpackage to manage
around 1600 packages (and growing). For the most part this is working fine,
so many thanks for all your work on svn-buildpackage so far!

However, with such a large number of packages, the trunk/branches/tags
directories are becoming rather large. This can make some work on the
repository quite slow, and makes it difficult to navigate the repository
with the web interfaces, etc.

I was wondering whether it would be possible to add new layout options that
would instruct svn-buildpackage to break up these directories by letter,
similar to the pool layout in the archive, i.e.

trunk/liba/
    libacme-bleach-perl
    libacme-damn-perl
    ...
trunk/libb/
    libbarcode-code128-perl
    libbenchmark-progressbar-perl
    ...

I'm not sure if this should be another option to '-l', or possibly a
separate option. It would probably be useful for repositories in either
layout.
