Wow, I totally misinterpreted that during the first reading. After some
tinkering this morning (and reading Ryan's email) I think I see the light ;)

svn checkout svn://minerva.bohemia.net/Project_Prometheus/trunk cotest
du -sh cotest
104M    cotest

svn export svn://minerva.bohemia.net/Project_Prometheus/trunk extest
du -sh extest
 52M    extest
