   Ie, make it a nested, non flat structure.
   
   That will not work, as it presumes a few things.
   
   1. That the existing structure can indeed be changed. In some cases it may 
be able to be changed, in others it certainly will not.
   2. Subclipse will not cope with this structure (having projects overlap)
   3. It does not fix the issue (which is a real one), it simply ignores it.
   
   Looking at the dates from the Subversion issue (2007) it has been around for 
a while.Their point of view is that it is a maven bug in that it is maven that 
fails to deal with a known issue. I can see their point.
   
   The fact of the matter is that Maven supports non nested directory 
structures, and so should the plugins.
   
   The SCM/subversion modules must be able to cater for this situation, it is 
not an uncommon one.Whilst it may be a hack to commit each project separately, 
it (to me at least, and from what I can read others as well) it would be an 
acceptable workaround.
   
   Perhaps there should be an option to use SVNKit, as that does handle this 
situation.
