I remember that experience <g>

After creating my directory, I issued the command:

svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/vim/vim7 c:\vim\vim70_svn\

Like with your experience, it got part way through and
generated an error message.

I just repeated the above command - in fact I believe I had
to repeat 4 or 5 times before I got through the initial
complete repository checkout.

To update, I just go to that directory and "svn up".  My
complete script (4nt) is:

    pushd c:\vim\vim70_svn
    svn up |& tee c:\pad\sv.out
    popd
    svn log c:\vim\vim70_svn --limit 1

implemented as a one line alias.  The only 4NTism is '|&'
which means to pipe both stdout and stderr.
