I just tried again, and got this error:

[joe posthaste ~/cvs/svn-test/beagle]$ svn commit -m "more testing of svn; updating README some more"
Could not chdir to home directory /home/users/joeshaw: No such file or directorySending        README
Transmitting file data .svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Base checksum mismatch on '/trunk/README':
   expected:  5f02b86929a95948918af05a4cec7a51
     actual:  8792fb30d64322f19853229dc8408c0c

It then dawned on me that perhaps another migration was running on the
repository while I was trying to commit to it earlier today.  So I moved
my (now outdated) checkout out of the way, checked out a fresh copy,
moved the README file into my new working directory, and the commit
worked.  So if this is what happened, there's no problem I guess. :)

Thanks,
Joe
