Thanks, Platonides.

I know the svn command to checkout or export a directory.
But I want to emphasis that the collaboration model are different between
svn and git.

For example, if I want to add some test cases, I need someone to grant me
the svn access.
While in github, I can push my contribution back to upstream very easily,
and the original author can choice what back to him.

Above is just my advice, if Andreas choices svn, I will follow his change on
svn also.
Let's drop the irrelevant discussion on git/svn issue, and back to the main
topic.

Regards,
Mingli
