I'm not sure how the risk here is worse than the risk of using any cloud service at all. If some attacker steals your password, they can destroy your picasaweb photos, your docs within Google Docs, delete your gmails, delete your g-calendar appointments, etc.
And the risk isn't specific to cloud services either. Even if you set up your own private server in a datacenter, an attacker could still hack the system and erase the machine. So the recommendation to 'back up' is a universal one: if you have valuable data, it's your responsibility to make sure it exists in more than one place. For subversion in particular, you can create a local mirror of a server's repository using the 'svnsync' tool. Just run svnsync every day to keep the mirror up to date.
