Comment #3 on issue 27 by pipping.elias: 1.6 change: '--set-depth exclude'  
support
http://code.google.com/p/svnbook/issues/detail?id=27

 From my understanding, it is not possible to do something like

   $ svn checkout --depth empty [..] <dir>
   $ cd <dir>
   $ svn up --set-depth exclude <nasty_dir>

rather, one first has to check something out before it can be excluded  
which means it
has to be downloaded at least once. It also looks like one can't set the  
depth
without using `svn up` -- otherwise I suppose one could set the depth to  
infinite
first and set it to exclude for <nasty_dir> afterwards when actually  
downloading
something.

You might want to make the above aspects very clear, assuming they reflect  
the truth,
since I perceived finding the above out as very frustrating.
