Is that going to be good enough?
I prefer real books to online docs, so I paid a bunch of money for the book _Version_Control_with_Subversion_, printed in October 2004, which is the same as, or perhaps earlier than, what's available at no cost at the URL listed above. So far it has answered all of my questions, with the exception of the networking issues that have been answered here or on IRC. The book is exceptionally well-written. In general I dislike having to move to new tools, but learning Subversion has been painless. Updating my regression hunt setup has been easy since with Subversion it is straightforward to do the operations that were difficult or error-prone with CVS, like getting sources for a branch as of a particular date or revision.
