Perhaps significantly, I am using multistage extension and thus can't invoke as 
you suggest and it doesn't seem to work. I can 'deploy' the first repository 
but not the second (url seems to be perfect but never checks out the code from 
svn).

here's an abbreviation/simplification of my deploy.rb

namespace :deploy do
  task :tag do
    url = url_to_deploy(svn_user, svn_pass)

    repo_path = " --no-auth-cache"
    repo_path << " --username #{user}"
    repo_path << " #{url}"

    set :deploy_to, "#{deploy_path}"
    set :application, "ids"
    set :copy_cache, "#{deploy_to}/cached-copy"
    set :repository, repo_path

    p "    
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"
    p "      Deploying: #{url} "
    p "    
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"
  end
  ..snip other deploy:tasks..
end

namespace :i18n do
  desc "Deploys i18n translations"
  task :update do
    url = url_to_deploy(svn_user, svn_pass) unless exists?(:url)
    url = "#{url}/#{i18n_sub_path}"

    repo_path = " --no-auth-cache"
    repo_path << " --username #{user}"
    repo_path << " #{url}"

    set :deploy_to, "#{deploy_path}/i18n"
    set :application, "xlate"
    set :copy_cache, "#{deploy_to}/cached-copy"
    set :repository, repo_path

    p "    
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"
    p "      Deploying: #{url} "
    p "    
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"
  end
  ..snip other i18n:tasks..
end

so the top task works fine: 'cap test2 deploy'
the bottom task doesn't ever check out the code: 'cap test2 i18n:update' though 
the 'url' is fine, the use of 'Highline' tells me that the 
authentication/selection of tags is fine and the "#{deploy_to}/cached-copy" 
exists but it never seems to actually even try to perform an svn checkout.
