Ah, somehow yes, although I admit the request shows more prejudice and 
lack of knowledge than real need.
Beyond the aesthetical side, I want to be sure that if the 
SVNRepositories no longer exist (or if the branch is moved on a computer 
not knowing it), nothing bad will happen, it won't try to push there, 
etc. No dependency at all.
If that's a non-issue, I will just move on.

I will try and init the lp repository in the same format, then.

Thanks.
