So if you're not using svnserve, just ignore those files. > What about adding a --method option to "svnadmin create"? If its only purpose would be to omit those two files above, then I don't think that's a good idea. It's not uncommon for people to change their minds about what method they want to use to serve a repository; why make it harder for users who want to switch to svnserve?
