svk example - managing /etc

• Similar in application to using RCS or SCCS

svk depot config /var/lib/config-svk
svk import -m 'Initial import' --to-checkout /config/ /etc
svk pe svn:ignore /etc
svk add newfile 
svk commit
svk commit --import # Don't bother add rm files explicitly

• Configure sudo to change HOME variable to root's.
• everyone's change is recorded properly with their name

sudo svk ci

• What's the big deal?
