Just a directory tree of files like CVS.

My last post seemed to have been lost. Oh well. One of the things I had
mentioned was that using darcs+subvversion in the same repo has a
problem which causes darcs to get out of whack becuase subversion is
adding .svn entries into the _darcs control directory. But I think I
figured out the fix. SVN's global_ignore setting in the
etc/subversion/config file needs a "_darcs" entry added to it --I'm not
sure if it needs to be _darcs or _darcs/* or _darcs/**/* or what exatly
though.
