I've just read it, and now it's really perfect!

"Subversion has no concept of a “project”. The repository is just a 
virtual versioned filesystem, a large tree that can hold anything you 
wish. Some administrators prefer to store only one project in a 
repository, and others prefer to store multiple projects in a repository 
by placing them into separate directories. The merits of each approach 
are discussed in the section called “Choosing a Repository Layout”. 
Either way, the repository only manages files and directories, so it's 
up to humans to interpret particular directories as “projects”."

Very clear! This paragraph will save a lot of beginners many minutes of 
wondering!

Greetings and thank you,

Joachim
