Hey you can do this. Let's assume your files are located in c:/foo and 
this is the directory you want to work.

So now you checkout to c:/bar and move the .svn directory in there to 
c:/foo.

Of course this simple approach only works if you dont have 
subdirectories (in this case you have to "mirror" these directories too).

But this approach really only makes sense if you have the same set of 
files in c:/foo as you have in c:/bar. A typical usecase for this is if 
you have performed an import and then wanna checkout the same set of files.
