The above doesn't work for me (SVN 1.6.3), as I get:

philip@water /tmp> svn co http://svn.php.net/repository --depth empty  
src
Checked out revision 284449.
philip@water /tmp> svn co http://svn.php.net/repository/phpdoc/en/ 
trunk --depth infinity src
svn: 'src' is already a working copy for a different URL

Felipe confirms this error on his work (1.6.3) machine, but thinks it  
worked on his home machine (he'll compare the difference when he gets  
home).

But the following does work:

svn co http://svn.php.net/repository --depth empty src
cd src
svn co http://svn.php.net/repository/phpdoc/en/trunk --depth infinity en

So this ends up with:

src/en

But, I can't recommend this due to my ignorance with the topic.

A few notes and questions:
- We rarely use branches/tags so it'd be nice if 'trunk' wasn't forced  
in our paths, making it the default... okay?
- When using sparse checkouts, what's the simplest method for having a  
phpdoc-all?
- I assume we'd remove our svn:externals while recommending this?

Philip
