Hello:

I downloaded your subversion client, and pointed it to my repository.  It seems
like an excellent client for subversion.

One suggested improvement is to somehow have the startup repository "refresh"
check moved to a background thread so the application is still responsive.  

I have a single repository with a deep tree structure containing many
subfolders, and the application is unresponsive for around 5 minutes at startup
while it refreshes the tree.  It would be good to have an indicator to show it
is updating, but still be able to browse into the tree structure while it is
doing this (the tree structure itself doesn't change much on a weekly basis).

Sincerely,
Matt
