It's fine to check out a Subersion repository "underneath" the files that you want to subsequently add to your working copy, which is what I typically did. Mutating Greg's example, you just add an explicit "current directory" to the `svn checkout` and use it in the equivalent context of `git init`:

svn checkout file://$HOME/repos/inigo .

Although I acknowledge that, unlike git, you still have to name the local repository and create it with svnadmin.

Cheers,
Dave
