Description Steven Wagner 2004-06-23 16:40:41 UTC
After emerging subversion, it finishes with 
* A repository needs to be created using the ebuild subversion config command
but there are no further instructions on how to do this.

After asking around in IRC, I was told to run 
ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-util/subversion-1.0.4-r1/subversion-1.0.4-r1.ebuild config

but I have no idea how I would have figured this out otherwise.  A more versbose instruction needs to be added.

I've made a more clear comment. If you want to know how to setup subversion I also advise you to take a look at the subversion book. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/
