It also sets svn:executable when appropriate.  (ie z3.py is executable
when I check it out)

I really have no idea.  I've also only used subversion on debian.


BTW, should I be able to build and run zope3 from that test
repository?  It looks like it is missing most of zope (including the
Makefile) and z3.py doesn't run.  Hmm, this is odd - the README.txt in
the svn trunk says zope3 needs python 2.2, but the same readme from
CVS HEAD says it needs python 2.3.
