Thanks, Alan - good idea.

I've made a few small changes to the SVN cheat sheet, and the new
version is on Google now:

http://added-bytes-cheat-sheets.googlegroups.com/web/subversion_cheat...

I've added a merge section as suggested. I've also removed the
Recommended Repo layout bit - not, I think, something will need a
reference for more than once. I've also rearranged a few descriptions
to free up some space for the merge section, and so I could expand the
admin bits from just creation to include a couple of other basic admin
tasks. Otherwise, it's pretty much the same.

I was going to release the Python cheat sheet this week, but haven't
had time to replace the regex section. However, I think the SVN one is
pretty much there, so change of plan - SVN one to be released this
week instead, with Python in a couple of weeks.

Any more suggestions or feedback for the SVN cheat sheet? Now's the
time - aiming for a release tomorrow lunchtime :)
