More formally, you can say that any file in the checkout is made of

The current SVN working copy philosophy (the same as CVS's, by the way) is that every working copy directory is self-contained. If we start recording command parameters in the working copy, we break that property.

Isn't this what the "Repository Root" from svn info gives?

No, that's the root of the repository, not the parameter given to "svn co".If you svn co svn+ssh://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/trunkthe repository root that gets recorded is svn+ssh://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gccThe same root is recorded if you svn co svn+ssh://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/branches/bounded-pointers-branch-- Brane
