You do know that this is the config folder for SVN not the
repo?
~/.subversion by default on unix. %APPDATA%Subversion on
windows I

True the object never knows, thats why you tell it in each
and every

All you need to do is pass the PATH to Client().update() and
 
everything will work.

I have no support for pickling a Client() object, its not
needed.
