    <para>

        The first level of directories in the repository provides

        organization through a convenctional <quote>trunk</quote>,

        <quote>branches</quote> and <quote>tags</quote> layout. In

        this configuration the 

        class="directory">trunk</filename> directory is where main

        changes take place, the 

        class="directory">tags</filename> directory is where frozen

        copies of <filename class="directory">trunk</filename> changes

        are placed in for releasing, and the 

        class="directory">branches</filename> directory is an

        intermediate place between 

        class="directory">trunk</filename> and 

        class="directory">tags</filename> states where changes take

        place before being merged into 

        class="directory">trunk</filename> and finally released into

        <filename class="directory">tags</filename>.
