I haven't dug through the manual parts, and I only use a small part of the functionality. What works well for me is: Create, checkout from an svn repo in terminal. Then, when using lyx, commiting changes to the lyx file works trivially (from the menu). When adding graphics is involved or anything else that goes beyond the lyx file itself, I commit from terminal again. I have no experience with what lyx does in case of collaboration and conflicts since I'm the only committer to my documents. Anyway, for my use case, lyx's ability is sufficient and easy to use.
