If so, that may not be the right tradeoff.
I understand the concern, but let me assure you: I strongly believe that this is not true. The only issue here is that people are trying to configure SVN using our Wiki page as the only reference (and not everybody even did that). Daniel and I wrote that page, but it is not meant to contain the answers for all the questions, nor the solve all configuration problems. We *never* had such a page for CVS as well: if it didn't work, people simply googled until they found the solution. Yet, to help the transition, we *are* preparing a documentation and we *are* helping people moving. There will be issues in the transition. But the result is that the common things will be faster and easier, and the less common things will be so incredibly faster and easier that might become more common about hackers -- which I see as a good thing. -- Giovanni Bajo
