It might not conflict, unless someone decides to check out a subset of your repository (or define an external referring to such a subset) that just happens to have that object called ".svn" at the root of the checkout. So no, I would not recommend that. Happily, Subversion doesn't allow it, either. -- Brane -- Branko Čibej | Director of Subversion WANdisco // Non-Stop Data e. br...@wandisco.com
