Please note, this might be from my inexperience, but I've found that the only effective way to work on a "private branch" in SVN is to check out the branch I care to modify in a separate directory.

You can use svn switch to point your working copy at a different branch.
Huh, I should have known/remembered that. Thanks for the tip! (It still seems that I'd want a full clone to work on multiple independent features simultaneously, but at least "cp -a" then "svn switch" on the copy would cut out the second grab over the network. The disk usage cost would be the same as how I use hg and git, too; I suspect that "git stash" would cover some of my use cases, but I am still learning.) Thanks again! Best regards, Tony
