Rails - Jan 2008 - svn repositories with multiple projects - best practice?

Quick svn question - sorry this rails related.

If I setup a repository once and then add multiple projects using ''svn
import'' is it correct that all the projects share they same revision
numbers?  Is this expected?  It seems kind of confusing that way.

On the other hand, if I use ''svnadmin create'' to create a
single project
repository for each project that seems like overkill.  What is the best
practice here?

I''ve been thinking about this recently and would like to hear what
other people think. I''m leaning towards a new repository for each new
project, but not sure.

Expected? Yes.  Confusing?  Well, if your experience is with SCS, CVS,  
RCS, etc. where each file has its own revision perhaps.

Not overkill.  This will make sense once you start using it.  In fact,  
if you look at Rails itself, you see that it is actually rails,  
active_support, action_pack, active_record, (action_mailer,  
action_web_service, ...) and each has its own repository (somewhere).   
You don''t generally have to worry about that since the dependencies in
RubyGems takes care of getting all the parts when you ask for Rails.

I typically have an ./svn directory under which I create  
repositories.  For real "projects", a separate repository is created,
but I have a bunch of random stuff in a repository called "code"

I''ve always used a single repository. Easier to maintain and all that  
(and if you do ever need to do any cross project operations, you''re  
basically stuffed if they''re not in the same repository) and not much  
in terms of downsides.
