SVN Repository Layout.

All,

There's been much email traffic and discussion about the repository
layout, top level stuff, etc. Additionally, Tanya, Chris, Gordon and I
had an IRC discussion last evening and worked through some of the issues
and confusion. As a result, I've prepared a web page that contains the
proposals and decisions we made. Hopefully this will reduce the
confusion surrounding this topic.

Please read this: http://llvm.org/SVNLayout.html at your earliest
convenience. If there is any confusion remaining, please let me know and
I'll update this page (or you can do it yourself).

Thanks,

Reid.

Why use makefiles instead of svn:externals? Running make inside a *checkout* to get
*another checkout* is backward and difficult to integrate into build and test systems
since you can't checkout a fixed rev easily because the makefile gets in the way.

Please see the llvmdev archives, this was discussed a few days ago.
