besides the s/svn/svnlite/ you forgot...  It doesn't work...  Sure it
imports all of my /etc, but doesn't let me commit my changes to rc.conf:
# svnlite commit rc.conf
svn: E155007: '/etc/rc.conf' is not a working copy

Plus, I was quite reasured that svn isn't smart enough to realize that
a path might be a file: url relative to the current working directory...
