At the moment all released versions of the last years are 1.2.x versions
and trunk is where we prepare for the next 1.2.x version.
So if you want to work on something around mod_jk, you will need trunk
and maybe one or two special versions, if you want to work on a specific
version of released code. Starting with trunk alone should be enough for
most things.
I plan to start a separate 1.3.x version line. At that point we will add
a branches/jk1.2.x and trunk will be used for 1.3.x. Repository changes
like this will not be announced on the users list. But all repository
changes are automatically mailed to the dev list.
I would start with a local directory tree
some_base_path/
mod_jk/
trunk/
branches/
tags/jk1.2.x/
(you can use some other name than "mod_jk", like e.g. "connectors" or
"tomcat-connectors").
And leave all of them except "trunk" empty until you actually need them.
To trunk you checkout
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/connectors/trunk
e.g. by "cd" into the mod_jk directory and using the command you
proposed above.
You can always add some tagged version or a new branch whenever you
notice you need it.
HTH!
Regards,
Rainer
